Chapter 9, Problem 9.38P

Coke can be converted into CO—a fuel gas—in the reaction C O 2 ( g ) + C ( s ) 2 C O ( g )

A coke that contains 84% carbon by mass and the balance noncombustible ash is fed to a reactor with a stoichiometric amount of CO2. The coke is fed at 77°F, and the CO2enters at 400°F. Heat is transferred to the reactor in the amount of 5859 Btu/Ibmcoke fed. The gaseous products and the solid reactor effluent (the ash and unburned carbon) leave the reactor at 183O°F. The heat capacity of the solid is 0.24Btu/(Ibm·°F).

  1. Calculate the percentage conversion of the carbon in the coke.

  • The carbon monoxide produced in this manner can be used as a fuel for residential home heating, as can the coke. Speculate on the advantages and disadvantages of using the gas. (There are several of each.)

    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?
    3. Ethanol Production. Ethylenc gas, C2H4(g) and steam at 320°C and 1 atm pressure are fed to a reaction process as an equimolar mixture. The reaction goes by: C,H4(g) + H20G) → CzH;0H) The process goes to completion and produces 1 mol of liquid ethanol C,H50Hy that leaves the reactor at 25°C. What is the heat, Q (kJ), associated with the process per mole of ethanol produced? Note: You must provide a full material balance for the process for full credit. Note: You must draw a hypothetical path for the process for full credit.
