Three plug flow reactors (PFR's) of 4, 5 & 6 m3 volumes are arranged in two branches as shown below in the figure.
If the total feed rate is 300 tons/hr, then for the same conversion in each branch, the feed rate through branch II should be __________ tons/hr.
If the total feed rate is 300 tons/hr, then for the same conversion in each branch, the feed rate through branch II should be __________ tons/hr.

For the same conversion in each branch, V/F should be constant in them, so
(V/F)1 = (V/F)2,
10/F1 = 5/F2,
Therefore, f2/f1 = 1/2.
So, 100 tons/hr should go to branch2.
(V/F)1 = (V/F)2,
10/F1 = 5/F2,
Therefore, f2/f1 = 1/2.
So, 100 tons/hr should go to branch2.
