12
Q

is a process equipment where in chemicals are
fed in order to make them chemically react with each other for the
purpose of making a desired product.

A

chemical reactor

13
Q

is a closed vessel
in which reactions happen and it is
a non-continuous type of reactor.

A

batch reactor

14
Q

is also often called a
mixed flow reactor (M.F.R). In this
reactor also the reaction occurs in a
closed tank.

A

continuous stirred tank reactor

15
Q

is someone who designs, implements, and
optimizes production processes to improve safety, efficiency, and
cost-effectiveness.

A

Process Engineer

16
Q

are tasked with managing the
processing operations throughout the chemical processing
facility. These individuals must monitor panel lights,
recording instruments, and flow meters.
