Note: We could use the gas phase mole balance for liquids and
then just express the concentration as:
Flow: CA=FA/v0
Batch: CA=NA/V0

Example D: Membrane Reactor with ΔP
We need to reconsider our pressure drop equation. When mass
diffuses out of a membrane reactor there will be a decrease in
the superficial mass flow rate, G. To account for this decrease in
calculating our pressure drop parameter, we will take the ratio
of the superficial mass velocity at any point in the reactor to the
superficial mass velocity at the entrance to the reactor. The
superficial mass flow rates can be obtained by multiplying the
species molar flow rates, Fi, by their respective molecular
weights, Mwi, and then summing over all species:

Example D: Membrane Reactor with ΔP
Because the smallest molecule is the one diffusing out and has
the lowest molecular weight, we will neglect the changes in the
mass flow rate down the reactor and will take as first

The complex liquid phase reactions take place in a semibatch
reactor where A is fed to B with FA0=3 mol/min. The
volumetric flow rate is 10 dm3/min and the initial reactor
volume is 1,000 dm3.
The maximum volume is 2,000 dm3 and CA0=0.3 mol/dm3
and CB0=0.2 mol/dm3. Plot CA, CB, CC, CD and SS/D as a
