Q: Salt in crude oil must be removed before the oil undergoes processing in a refinery. The crude bil is fed to a washing unit where freshwater fed to the unit mixes with the oil and dissolves a portion of the salt contained in the oil. The oil (containing some salt but no water), being less dense than the water, can be removed at the top of the washer. If the "spent" wash water contains 15% salt and the crude oil contains 6 % salt, determine the concentration of salt in the "washed" bil product if the ratio of crude oil (with salt) to water used is 4:1.

250 degrees saturated steam enters a steam coil. The steam is condensed in the coil, leaving as a saturated liquid also at 250 degrees. The rate of heat loss to the environment is 1.5 J/s. The methanol to be heated is fed into the fermenter at 20 degrees and is at 45 degrees. If 150kg of biomass with a specific enthalpy change of 81.5 J/g flows into the process per hour, how many kilograms of steam are needed per hour? What is the volumetric flow of steam?
A feed of 10 000 kg of soybeans is processed in a sequence of three stages. The feed contains 35wt% protein, 27.1wt% carbohydrate, 9.4wt% fiber and ash, 10.5wt% moisture, and 18wt% oil. In the first stage, the beans are crushed and pressed to remove oil, giving an expressed oil stream and a stream of pressed beans containing 6wt% oil. Assume no loss of other constituents in the oil stream. In the second stage, the pressed beans are extracted with hexane to produce an extracted meal stream containing 0.5wt% oil and a hexane-oil stream. Assume no hexane in the extracted meal. Finally, in the last stage, the extracted meal is dried to give a dried meal of 8wt% moisture. Find the 1. mass in kg of pressed beans from the first stage, the mass of extracted meal from the second stage, mass of final dried meal from the third stage, and wt% of protein in the dried meal. Provide illustration.

A Boeing 767 due to fly from Montreal to Edmontonrequired refueling. Because the fuel gauge on the aircraft was not working, a mechanic used a dipstick todetermine that 7682 L of fuel were left on the plane.The plane required 22,300 kg of fuel to make the trip. Inorder to determine the volume of fuel required, thepilot asked for the conversion factor needed to converta volume of fuel to a mass of fuel. The mechanic gavethe factor as 1.77. Assuming that this factor was in metric units the pilot calculated the volume to beadded as 4916 L. This volume of fuel was added andthe 767 subsequently ran out the fuel, but landed safelyby gliding into Gimli Airport near Winnipeg. The errorarose because the factor 1.77 was in units of pounds perliter. What volume of fuel should have been added?
Problem 3: A large room contains a volume of air of Va = 11 m3 at a temperature of Ta = 55° F. It also contains a bathtub holding a volume of water of Vw = 0.51 m3 at a temperature of Tw = 111° F. Parts (a), (b), (c) are already complete. Just need parts (d) and (e). Part (a) If the density of the air at Ta is ρa = 1.25 kg/m3, calculate the mass of air in the room in kilograms. ma = 13.75 Part (b) If the density of the water at Tw is ρw = 1000 kg/m3, calculate the mass of the water in the bathtub in kilograms. mw = 510 Part (c) Take the room and water as an isolated system. Write an equation for the equilibrium temperature of the system T in terms of ma, Ta, mw, Tw, and the specific heat capacity of the air ca and the water cw. T = ( mw cw Tw + ma ca Ta )/( mw cw + ma ca ) Part (d) Calculate the final temperature of the system in kelvin, assuming a constant specific heat for the water of cw = 4180 J/kg⋅K and a constant specific heat capacity for the air of ca = 1010 J/kg⋅K.…
Problem 12.4 solve the given problem: A 2-compartment vessel contains fluid in each section. For the first compartment, the fluid density is 1254 kg/m^3 and the second is 611.9kg/m^3. The partition is removed, allowing the liquids to mix. Determine the specific gravity of the mixture if the fluid masses are equal.
