Chapter 5, Problem 5.56P
A stream of ho dry nitrogen flows through a process unit that contains liquid acetone. A substantial portion of the acetone vaporizes and is carried off by the nitrogen. The combined gases leave the recovery unit at 205°C and 1.1 bar and enter a condenser in which a portion of the acetone is liquefied. The remaining gas leaves the condenser at 10°C and 40 bar. The partial pressure of acetone in the feed to the condenser is 0.100 bar, and that in the effluent gas from the condenser is 0.379 bar. Assume ideal-gas behavior.
(a) Calculate for a basis of 1 m3 of gas fed to the condenser the mass of acetone condensed (kg) and the volume of gas leaving the condenser (m3).
(b) Suppose the volumetric flow rate of the gas leaving the condenser is 20.0 m3/h. Calculate the rate (kg/h) at which acetone is vaporized in the solvent recovery unit.

The boiler in an apartment building uses propane (C3H8) to heat
water that circulates throughout the building as steam. 1.00
m'/s of propane gas at 25°C and 1 atm is combusted with 10%
excess air at 25°C and 1 atm. After all of the propane is
combusted, the product gas contains a 10.0:1 molar ratio of
CO2 to CO and leaves the boiler at 25°C. Heat from the boiler
is transferred to a pure water stream at 50°C and 1.0 bar, which
is converted into saturated steam at 20 bar, with no heat lost to
the surroundings in the process. What mass of water is heated
in this process?

The synthesis of methanol from carbon monoxide and hydrogen is carried out in a continuous vapor-phase reactor at 5.00 atm
absolute.
The feed contains cO and H2 in stoichiometric proportion and enters the reactor at 25.0°C and 5.00 atm at a rate of 31.1 m³/h.
The product stream emerges from the reactor at 157°C.
The rate of heat transfer from the reactor is 21.0 kW.
Calculate the fractional conversion (0 to 1) of carbon monoxide achieved and the volumetric flow rate (m3/h) of the product stream.

1. Fresh air containing 4.00 mole % water vapor is to be cooled and dehumidified to a water
content of 1.70 mole% H20. A stream of fresh air is combined with a recycle stream of
previously dehumidified air and passed through the cooler. The blended stream entering
the unit contains 2.30 mole% H2O. In the air conditioner, some of the water in the feed
stream is condensed and removed as liquid. A fraction of the humidified air delivered to
the cooler is recycled and the remainder is delivered to a room. Taking 100 mole of
dehumidified air delivered to the room as a basis of calculation; calculate the moles of
fresh feed, moles of water condensed, and moles of dehumidified air recycled.

- A mixture containing 42 wt% benzene (B) and 58 wt% toluene (T) is fed to a distillation column at a flow rate of 100 kg per minute. The product steam leaving the top of the column (the overhead product) contains 90 wt% benzene and 85 wt% of the total benzene fed to the column exits in this overhead product stream. Calculate the mass flow rate and mass composition of the product stream leaving the bottom of the column. Calculate the volumetric flow rate of the overhead product, assuming that it exits the distillation column as a vapour stream at 82C and 1 atm (abs).

- A constant-volume tank initially contains 1 kmol of carbon monoxide CO and 3 kmol of oxygen O2 (no nitrogen) at 25°C and 2 atm. Now the mixture is ignited and the CO burns completely to carbon dioxide CO2. If the final temperature in the tank is 500 K, determine the final pressure in the tank and the amount of heat transfer. Is it realistic to assume that there will be no CO in the tank when chemical equilibrium is reached?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.

LPG is mixed with excess air to burn in a boiler at 100 kPa. The CO2 in burned gas is 7% on dry basis. Determine the equivalence ratio of the mixture.arrow_forward
- The production of cement results in significant GHG emissions. The emissions are caused by the decomposition of calcium carbonate (limestone) to calcium oxide (lime) and carbon dioxide. This process known as calcination, is carried out in kilns. Therefore, additional GHGs are emitted as a result of heating the kilns. A large cement manufacturer uses a mix of coal, natural gas, and biomass in its boiler. This mix produces the following amounts of GHGs per Million BTUs of energy: • 250 lbs CO2/MMBtu • 5 lbs CH4/MMBtu • 0.36 lbs N2O/MMBtu Process carbon emissions from the calcination process produce 925 lbs of carbon dioxide per metric ton of cement. In addition, the plant uses 1.7 Million BTUs of energy per metric ton of cement. If the plant produces 180,000 metric tons of cement annually, how many metric tons of CO2e does it emit?arrow_forward3. A gas contained within a closed piston-cylinder assembly undergoes three processes in series: Process 1-2: Constant volume from P₁ = 1 bar, V₁ = 4 m³ to state 2, where P₂ = 2 bar; Process 2-3: Compression to V3 = 2 m³, during which the pressure-volume relationship is PV = constant; Process 3-4: Constant pressure to state 4, where V4 = 1 m³; (a) Sketch the processes in series on P-V coordinates. (b) Evaluate the magnitude of work in kJ for EACH process. To make the unit consistent, you might need to convert the unit of pressure from bar to Pa.arrow_forwardA gas mixture contains one-third methane by volume (recall what that means in terms of mole%) and the balance oxygen at 350°C and 3.0 bar.
