Answer:
The PFR is more efficient in the removal of the reactive compound as it has the higher conversion ratio.
Xₚբᵣ = 0.632
X꜀ₘբᵣ = 0.5
Xₚբᵣ > X꜀ₘբᵣ
Explanation:
From the reaction rate coefficient, it is evident the reaction is a first order reaction
Performance equation for a CMFR for a first order reaction is
kτ = (X)/(1 - X)
k = reaction rate constant = 0.05 /day
τ = Time constant or holding time = V/F₀
V = volume of reactor = 280 m³
F₀ = Flowrate into the reactor = 14 m³/day
X = conversion
k(V/F₀) = (X)/(1 - X)
0.05 × (280/14) = X/(1 - X)
1 = X/(1 - X)
X = 1 - X
2X = 1
X = 1/2 = 0.5
For the PFR
Performance equation for a first order reaction is given by
kτ = In [1/(1 - X)]
The parameters are the same as above,
0.05 × (280/14) = In (1/(1-X)
1 = In (1/(1-X))
e = 1/(1 - X)
2.718 = 1/(1 - X)
1 - X = 1/2.718
1 - X = 0.3679
X = 1 - 0.3679
X = 0.632
The PFR is evidently more efficient in the removal of the reactive compound as it has the higher conversion ratio.
Solution :
Given :
The number of blows is given as :
0 - 6 inch = 4 blows
6 - 12 inch = 6 blows
12 - 18 inch = 6 blows
The vertical effective stress 
Now,
corrected N - value of overburden
effective stress at level of test
0 - 6 inch, 
= 9.86
6 - 12 inch, 
= 14.8
12 - 18 inch,
= 14.8
= 13.14
= 13
Answer:
Estimated number of indigenous faults remaining undetected is 6
Explanation:
The maximum likelihood estimate of indigenous faults is given by,
here,
= the number of unseeded faults = 6
= number of seeded faults = 30
= number of seeded faults found = 15
So NF will be calculated as,
And the estimate of faults remaining is 
= 12 - 6 = 6
