In a chemical production plant, cyclohexane is made by the reaction of benzene and hydrogen. Reaction is as follows:
CHs + H2 → CoH12
The complete process of producing cyclohexane uses a reactor and a separator. Using the process shown below
and assuming 20 % excess hydrogen in the fresh feed, find the ratio of the recycle stream to the fresh feed
stream, the composition of the final product stream, and the composition of the stream leaving the reactor. The
overall conversion of benzene is 92% and the single-pass conversion is 21.5 %. The recycle stream is composed
of 23.9 % benzene and the remaining hydrogen.

- 1 mol propane (C3H8) and stoichiometric amount of oxygen (O2) needed to combust propane was preheated to 400 K. After combustion, the products released are at 1500 K. The combustion products are H2O(l) and CO2(g). With 100% conversion was achieved, estimate the total heat released. Calculate the heat requirement for a reactor in combusting 1 mol of methane, CH4, with 25% excess air until the products reach a temperature of 1000 K. The reactants entered the reactor at 298.15 K and 100% conversion of methane is achieved. Assume air is approximately 21% O2 and 79% N2 and products are H2O(l) and CO2(g). Hint for both #1 and #2 – Combustion products at 298 K is CO2(g) and H2O(l). If the exiting temperature is above 373.15 K, H2O will leave as H2O(g). Therefore, you should account for the phase change of H2O(l) to H2O(g).arrow_forwardC22H4(g) + H2(g) --> C2H6(g) C22H4 flows into a catalytic reactor at 25.0 atm and 300°C with a flow rate of 957.3L/min.

- Your careless, clumsy lab mate has accidentally allowed carbon monoxide to leak out of a reactor, causing your lab’s CO monitor alarm to sound. After you quickly put on the appropriate Personal Protective Equipment, you find the leak and seal it. Then, you close your lab door, shut the windows, and call OSHA to report the hazard.When OSHA technicians arrive, they begin ventilating the 3000-ft3laboratory by pumping 25 ft3/min of fresh air into the room and removing the contaminated air at the same rate. They put a shop fan in the laboratory, such that the air is well-mixed. They also install a digital CO composition monitor, which currently reads 2 mol%. OSHA tells you that the laboratory is safe when there is less than 35 ppm of CO in the lab.How long must you wait to get back to work?arrow_forwardConsider the following two reactions: A-->2B+C (desired) A+C-->2D (undesired) If 50 moles of A are fed to the reactor, the fractional yield of B is 0.60 and the conversion of A is 90%, then the number of moles of A consumed in the second reaction is: Answer.
