Chapter 5, Problem 5.40P

A spray-drying operation similar to that described in Problem 5.23 is used by the pharmaceutical industry. Acetaminophen is an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) that can be produced in powdered form by spray drying. A mixture of the API containing 75 wt% water is fed to an atomizer in a dryer where it is brought into contact with hot air that enters the dryer at 220°C and 6.0 bar. All of the water is evaporated. The outlet gas contains 8.1 mole water and leaves the dryer chamber at 80°C and 1.0 atm absolute with a flow rate of 513.6 m3/h. Calculate the production rate of powdered API and the volumetric flow rate of inlet air.

Air with a relative humidity of 95% and temperature of 35°C is pumped into a chamber filled with a non-reactive porous material. The material has a porosity of 0.6 and is initially completely dry. After 15 minutes, air leaving the bed has temperature of 40°C and relative humidity of 5%. Complete this sentence: The air leaving the bed has a higher temperature than when it entered because: The latent heat of water in the gas phase was released by condensation onto the porous material The latent heat of water in the porous medium was released into the gas phase by a phase change. The latent heat of water in the gas phase was absorbed by evaporation The porous material was hot and transferred its energy to the air O Condensing water reacted with the porous material exothermically (that is, the reaction made heat)
A hydrocarbon stream composed of 40 mol% n-butane and 60 mol% n-octane is fed at 100 kmol/h to a flash vessel operating at 5 bar and 145°C. The liquid outlet stream of the flash vessel is then sent to a distillation column with a partial condenser to further separate the components. 90% of the butane in the feed to the column is recovered in the overhead vapor product (distillate), along with small amounts of octane. The bottoms product contains octane which accounts for 75% of the octane in the fresh hydrocarbon feed (to the flash vessel). The condenser and reboiler operating temperatures are 136.7°C and 165.7°C, respectively. Determine the compositions of the liquid outlet stream of the condenser and the vapor outlet stream of the reboiler.
A 3.1 kg mass of saturated liquid-vapor mixture of water is contained within a closed system in a vertically arranged piston-cylinder device at a pressure of P1. Initially, 1.1067 kg of the water is in the liquid phase and the rest is in the vapor phase. Heat is now transferred to the water, and the piston, which is resting on a set of stops, starts moving when the pressure inside reaches P2. Heat transfer continues until the total volume increases by 19 percent. Consider Case #7 from Table 1: Table 1: Case # along with the list of pressures P, and P2 Case # P1 (kPa) P2 (kPa) 100 300 150 300 3 200 500 4 250 500 300 500 350 700 400 700 8. 450 700 (a) show the process on a P-v diagram in reference to the saturation lines, (b) determine the initial and final temperatures, (c) determine the mass of liquid water when the piston first starts moving, and (d) determine the work done during this process.
