About this document
CSTR Experiment: Saponification Kinetics by delwi87 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The experiment involves studying a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) to determine the effect of temperature on the saponification reaction between sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and ethyl acetate (Et(Ac)). The reactor is operated at different temperatures between 50-75°C while maintaining a residence time of 50 minutes. Samples are taken and the concentration of unreacted NaOH is determined through titration to calculate the conversion. The results are used to determine the rate constant and activation energy
