I have a reaction (Liq. phase; ~1st order kinetics) that needs a Residence Time of ~45 minutes for the desired conversion levels to be attained. Currently I've only carried it out in a  batch reactor; but am exploring ways to make it continuous.

Ideally, a plug-flow pattern would be great; but most case-studies of PFR's are for "fast" reactions. Has anyone handled processes with 30 minute+ residence times in a PFR?

Would the required tube-lengths get prohibitively long? My gut feeling says PFR is a no-go but wanted to get other opinions.

good morning curiouscat

get you, provide data for the kinetics of the reaction are you? the value of k? operating conditions? properties of the reactants and products?

I will help you to solve the problems of kinetics and reactor design, but I need time, if it is finished I will send the solution file to your email, what is your email address?

this, my email address, if you find a problem, you can contact me,,

success always,,
