Dusty air at a fertilizer plant flows through a 70%-efficient cyclone and then through an ESP. The inlet air to the cyclone has a dust loading of 50 grains/cubic foot. in order to meet a control standard of 98.5% collection efficiency for the fertilizer plant as a whole, what is the allowable concentration of dust (in grains/cubic foot) in the air that exits from the ESP?

A reverse osmosis machine for purifying brackish water contains roughly 900,000 hollow threads that allow water to pass through while rejecting the majority of the salt. The fibers have an outside diameter of 85 m, a diameter of 42 m, and a length of roughly 3 ft. When the feed pressure is 400 psig, the average flow through the tubes is 2,000 gal of water every 24 hours. From the feed end to the discharge end, what is the pressure drop within a single fiber?
You are to spray an 80-acre field that will be planted to alfalfa with 32 oz/ac Roundup, 1.5 pints/ac of Treflan, and 17lbs AMS/100 gallon spray. If your sprayer is calibrated to apply 10GPA carrier volume and holds 800-gallons how much AMS do you need to add to your sprayer to condition your water, and how many gallons of Roundup and Treflan do you need to add to your sprayer so that you apply the proper rate?
In a chemistry plant, through a horizontal smooth pipeline with a diameter of 0,3 m, a fluid with density and viscosity of 769 kg/m3 and 0,0007 Pa-s, respectively is flowing with a flow rate of 0,009 m3/s. Disregarding the pipe entrance effects and treating flow being steady, uniform and incompressible; a) Find the magnitude of mean velocity (in m/s). (Please use only 3 decimal digits.) b) Find Reynolds number. (Please do not use any decimal digit.) c) Find the magnitude of friction factor. (Please use 4 decimal digits.)
Air flows through a duct at 2,700 cubic feet per minute (CFM). After several feet and a few vents, the air-flow decreases to 1,890 CFM. What is the percent drop that has occurred? (Simplify your answer completely.)
The application rate of a certain chemical is recommended at 4 kg/ha. The calibration test of a 16-liter knapsack sprayer is as follows: Nozzle discharge = 1.2 liters/min, swath = 1.5 m and walking speed = 20 m/minDetermine the amount of chemical to mix with water per loading:a. 102 gms/load b. 160 gms/loadc. 200 gms/load d. 240 gms/load
A flowmeter calibrated with reference to 1 atm and 0 °C indicates a flow rate of 200 ml/min of dry air. The environment in which the equipment is installed has a temperature of 25 °C and a pressure of 1 atm. Dry air at 1 atm and 25 °C for 28,949 grams in 1 mol. As the instrument does not have a system for pressure and temperature correction, calculate the current flow.
This is a question from Sustainable Energy 2nd Edition by Richard Dunlap: If a high head hydroelectric facility is considered to be carbon free, what is the annual reduction in CO2 emissions for a 1000 MWe hydroelectric station compared to a 1000 MWe coal-fired station operating at 38% efficiency? Assume both stations have a 70% capacity factor.

A steam generator generates flue gas at an average temperature of 260 C inside a Chimney. The theoretical draft is 0.5 kPa and the ambient condition of the air is 21 C and 100 kPa. Assume the coefficient velocity to be 0.30 and the molecular weight of the flue gas is 32. For air-fuel ratio requirements per second of 15, calculate: a. The diameter of the Chimney, meter b. The theoretical draft, cm H₂O
