Chapter 6, Problem 6.86P
Potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7) is to be recovered from a 21 wt% aqueous solution in a continuous crystallization operation. The solution is joined by a recycle stream and fed to a vacuum evaporator where water is removed and the remaining solution is cooled to 30°C, at which temperature the solubility of the salt is 0.20 kg K2Cr2O7/kg H2O. The solution and suspended potassium dichromate crystals ?ow to a centrifuge. The crystals and 5.0% of the solution constitute the solids recovered from the centrifuge, and the remaining solution is recycled to the evaporator. The solids, which contain 90 wt% crystals and 10% entrained solution, are fed to a dryer, where they are contacted with hot air. The remaining water in the solids is evaporated, leaving pure potassium dichromate crystals. The air leaves the dryer at 90°C and 1 atm with a dew point of 392°C. For a production rate of 1000 kg solid K2Cr2O7/h, calculate the required feed rate (kg/h) of 21% solution, the rate of evaporation of water in the evaporator (kg/h), the ?ow rate (kg/h) of the recycle stream, and the feed rate of air (standard liters/h).

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.

For the purpose of determination of
agricultural pesticides in river water,
3.2 liters of river water were taken and
extracted with 125ml of CCI4 solvent
using a separating funnel. After
shaking and reaching the state of
equilibrium, if you know that the value
of the distribution coefficient (KD) is
equal to 20, the weight ratio of the
pesticides in the boiling layer to the
lower layer in the separating funnel?
Feed gas containing of 78.5mol % H₂, 21% of N₂ & 0.5% of Ar is mixed with recycle gas and
enters a reactor where 15% N₂ is converted to NH3 as per the reaction. Ammonia from the exit of
the reactor is completely separated from unconverted gases. To avoid the buildup of inerts, a small
fraction (5%) of the unreacted gases purged and the balance recycled.

- Solid calcium (CaF2) reacts with sulfuric acid to form solid calcium sulfate and gaseous hydrogen fluoride. The HF is then dissolved in water to form hydrofluoric acid. A source of calcium fluoride is fluorite ore containing 96 wt% CaF2 and 4% SiO2. In a typical hydrofluoric acid manufacturing process, fluorite ore is reacted with 93 wt% aqueous sulfuric acid, supplied 15% in excess of the stoichiometric amount. Ninety-five percent of the ore dissolves in the acid. Some of the HF formed reacts with the dissolved silica in the reaction 6 HF + SIO2 (aq) – H2SİF6 (9) + 2 H2O (1) The hydrogen fluoride exiting from the reactor is subsequently dissolved in enough water to produce 60 wt% hydrofluoric acid.

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.

Assume that water is completely insoluble in hexanol. A mixture of 18wt% acetic acid and the balance water is feed to liquid-liquid extraction vessel. Pure hexanol is feed to the column to extracted the acetic acid. The water-rich stream leaving the vessel is 99.5wt% water and the balance acetic acid. The hexanol-rich extract from the vessel is feed to a distillation column. The composition of the distillate is 96wt% acetic acid and the balance hexanol. The bottom stream contains 97.2wt% hexanol and recovers 95% of the hexanol feed to the liquid-liquid extraction vessel.
