A pharmaceutical product, P, is made in a batch reactor. The reactor effluent goes through a purifiation process to yield a final product stream and a waste stream. The initial charge (feed) to the reactor and the final product are each weighed, and the reactor effluent, final product, and waste stream are each analyzed for P. The analyzer calibration is a series of meter readings, R. corresponding to known mass fractions of P, ,vP.
Xp | 0.08 | 0.16 | 0.25 | 0.45 |
R | 105 | 160 | 245 | 360 |
- Plot the analyzer calibration data on logarithmic axes and determine an expression for xp(R).
Batch #: 23601 Date: 10/4 Mass charged to reactor: 2253 kg Mass of purified product: 1239 kg Reactor effluent analysis: R = 388 Final product analysis: R = 583 Waste stream analysis: R = 140

- 3. Corev was synthesizing a chemical in the laboratory. He used different purification techniques to try to obtain a pure compound. The melting point of the pure compound is 65 degrees. When he tested his compound in the lab the melting point he obtained was 62-68 degrees. Is the product he synthesized pure? 4A company was low on copper metal and decided to use some chemical additives just this once to some copper wiring they were installing in a house. How will this impact the conductivity of the wiring?arrow_forwardThe following gas-phase reaction takes place in a closed, constant-volume batch reactor at isothermal (constant temperature) conditions. 2CO+O2→2CO2 Initially, the reactor contains 0.564 kmol of CO, 1 kmol of O2, 1 kmol of CO2, and 0.5 kmol of N2 at a total pressure of 5 atm. Assuming ideal gas behavior, what is the reactor pressure (in atm) when the reaction goes to completion?arrow_forwardMethanol (CH3OH) is produced in the reaction of carbon dioxide and hydrogen via the reaction and process given below: CO2+3H2→CH3OH+H2O The fresh feed to the process contains hydrogen, carbon dioxide, and 0.400 mol% inerts (I). The reactor effluent passes through a condenser that removes essentially all of the methanol and water formed and none of the reactants or inerts. The unreacted reactants and inerts are recycled to the reactor. To avoid buildup of the inerts in the system, a purge stream is withdrawn from the recycle. 100 mol/h of feed to the reactor (not the fresh feed to the process) contains 29.5 mol% CO2, 68.0 mol% H2, and 2.50 mol% inerts. The single-pass conversion of hydrogen is 46.71%. What is the recycle-to-fresh feed ratio?arrow_forward
- 2. In an ethanol production plant, a separator produces a 99% ethanol product from a feedstock stream containing 85% water and 15% ethanol at a rate of 450 Ib/min. The separator has two outlet streams: the ethanol product outlet stream (99% ethanol) and a residual water stream. 30% of the feedstock is bypassed and mixed with the residual water stream leaving the separator. If 60% of the ethanol entering the separator is recovered in the product stream, determine the composition of the residual water stream just after leaving the separator and the composition of the residual stream after mixing with the bypass stream.arrow_forward3. Suppose you are to measure the BOD removal rate for a primary wastewater treatment plant. You take 2 samples of raw sewage on its way into the plant and two samples of the effluent leaving the plant. Standard 5-day BOD tests are run on the four samples, with no seeding producing the following data: Sample Dilution Doi (mg/L) DOf (mg/L) Source 1 Raw 1:30 9.0 2.2 2 Raw 1:20 9.0 ? 3 Treated 1:15 8.5 1.5 4 Treated ? 9.0 1 a. Find the BOD5 for the raw and treated sewage, and the percent removal of BOD in the treatment plant. b. Find the DO that would be expected in sample 2 at the end of the test. c. What would be the maximum volume of treated sewage for sample 4 that could be put into the 300 mL BOD bottle and still have the DO after 5 days remain above zero?arrow_forward1. Aluminum sulfate can be made by the following reaction: 2AlCl3(aq)+3 H2SO4(aq)➡Al(SO4)3(aq)+6HCl(aq). It is quit soluble in water, so to isolate it the solution has to be evaporated to dryness. This drives off the volatile HCl, but the residual solid has to be heated to a little over 200 celsius to drive off the water. In one experiment, 25.0 g of AlCl3 were mixed with 30.0 g of H2SO4. Eventually, 28.46 g of pure Al2(SO4)3 were isolated. Calculate the percentage yield. 2. The potassium salt of benzoic acid, potassium benzoate (KC7H5O2), can be made by the action of potassium permanganate on toluene (C7H8) as follows: C7H8+ KMnO4➡ KC7H5O2+ 2MnO2+ KOH+ H2O. If the yield of potassium benzoate cannot realistically be expected to be more tha 71%, what is the minimum number of grams of toluene needed to achieve this yield while producing 11.5g of potassium benzoate? 3.
