Question- A company that produces parts for the space station generates a toxic compound named MED that needs to be decomposed before the waste stream is released into the environment. The company generates 500 gal/day of a waste stream that contains 1000 mg/L MED. The decay is characterized by a decay constant of (-12.5 L/mg.s). The company wants to purchase a system containing a CSTR to achieve 99.99% destruction in a day, but another vendor says that their PFR can do the same MED decomposition in less than a minute. Is the second vendor exaggerating? Show calculations
I desire to know how this is done please illustrate all steps in detail
