Discussion
State whether the following is true or false.
Two identical PFRs in parallel with the feed split equally behave as one PFR of the same total volume.
Answer: C
Correct answer: True
Splitting the feed equally between two identical reactors gives each half the flow and half the volume, so the space time in each is the same as in the single large reactor - and since a plug flow reactor’s conversion depends only on the space time, each branch achieves exactly what the single reactor would, and the recombined stream matches it. The result holds for CSTRs in parallel too, and it fails if the split is unequal.
