An isothermal plug flow reactor model was developed to study the behaviour of acid hydrolysis of Cellulosic substrates. The Kinetic parameters in a model which gives the glucose formation from purified cellulose (Solkaflock), were obtained over the following range of independent variables temperature, 4833% sulfuric acid concentration 0.0102M, fractional conversion (XA) form 0.10 to 0.91. It was also determined that the volume of reactor (VR) length of reactor (LR) and internal diameter (Di) etc. directly increased with fractional conversion (XA) with values as 1.87, 11.4, 0.45 respectively. A computer programme using C-machine Language was used to simulate the models. The production of glucose in this work tells us that, the continuous acid hydrolysis of cellulose from cellulose may be a process of commercial interest and may alleviate our environmental problems.
