Question

Producer gas is a fuel that is manufactured from the reaction of coal, steam and air. A producer gas has the following composition by volume (dry basis): 20.35% CO, 11.03%, CO2, 15% H2, 51.43% N2, 1.98%O2 and 0.21 % CH4. The gas is flowing at 6000 cfm. It has a temperature of 200℃ , a pressure of 21 cm Hg and a partial pressure of 50 mm Hg for H2O. The atmospheric pressure is 758 mm Hg. The gas is delivered from the source to the furnace by means of a pipe. It cools down to 50 ℃ and is compressed to 2 atm pressure. At this condition, calculate:
1. the volumetric flow ate
2. the mass flow rate
3. the partial pressure of each component/including water)
4. complete analysis of the mixture
