Chapter 9, Problem 9.30P
A gas mixture containing 85 mole% methane and the balance oxygen is to be charged into an evacuated well-insulated 20-liter reaction vessel at 25°C and 200 kPa. An electrical coil in the reactor, which delivers heat at a rate of 100 watts, will be turned on for 85 seconds and then turned off. Formaldehyde will be produced in the reaction
The reaction products will be cooled and discharged from the reactor.
- Calculate the maximum pressure that the reactor is likely to have to withstand, assuming that there are no side reactions. If you were ordering the reactor, why would you specify an even greater pressure in your order? (Give several reasons.)
- Why would heat be added to the feed mixture rather than running the reactor adiabatically?
- Suppose the reaction is run as planned, the reaction products are analyzed chromatographically. and some CO2is found. Where did it come from? If you had taken it into account, would your calculated pressure in Part (a) have been larger, smaller, or can’t you tell without doing the detailed calculations?

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.

The n-butane is converted into isobutane in an isomerization reactor, which operates isothermally at 149°C. Suppose that the reactor is fed with a mixture containing 93% mole of n-butane, 5% isobutane and 2% HCl at 149°C and that a 40% conversion of n-butane is achieved. How much heat in KJ/m3 (STP) of the feed, should be supplied or extracted from the reactor?
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.

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.

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.

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

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.

Four thousand kilograms per hour of a solution that is one-third K,CrO, by mass is joined by a recycle stream containing 36.4% K2CrO7, and the combined stream is fed into an evaporator. The concentrated stream leaving the evaporator contains 49.4% K,CrO; this stream is fed into a crystallizer in which it is cooled (causing crystals of K,CrO, to come out of solution) and then filtered. The filter cake consists of K,CrO, crystals and a solution that contains 36.4% K,CrO, by mass; the crystals account for 95% of the total mass of the filter cake. The solution that passes through the filter, also 36.4% K,CrO,, is the recycle stream. 1- Draw the flowchart of the system and put all known information. 2- Calculate the rate of evaporation, the rate of production of crystalline K,CrO7, the feed rates that the evaporator and the crystallizer must be designed to handle, and…arrow_forward
