Question

2.23 A zero-order reaction is known to have a temperature correction factor (e) of 1.01. A batch reactor was used in the laboratory (25°C) with a reaction time of 3

hr to achieve a reduction in the concentration of a synthetic organic compounds from 3mg/L to 0.1 mg/L. How long will the reaction take under the field conditions (12°C) to achieve the same treatment efficiency?
