Alternative reactor systems are being considered to reduce the reactant in a steady state system from \( 150 \mathrm{mg} / \mathrm{L} \) to \( 20 \mathrm{mg} / \mathrm{L} \). Assuming a first order reaction constant of \( 0.6 \mathrm{day}^{-1} \) : calculate the retention time for (a) one PFR, (b) one CSTR, and (c) 2 equal volume CSTRs in series.
