About this document
Efficient Reactor Design for Saponification by andrias is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document summarizes a reactor design project to convert a waste stream of ethyl acetate into sodium acetate. A batch reactor, CSTR, and PFR were tested on a small scale in the lab at temperatures of 10-25°C and their efficiency was compared. Testing found the CSTR to be most efficient. Cost estimates were made to scale up the preferred CSTR design to industrial levels to process 65 million pounds per year. The overall first year cost was estimated to be $2,819,779.37. Future work could include testing o
