And experiment on the growth rate of certain organisms requires an environment of humid air and enriched oxygen. Three input streams are fed into an evaporation chamber to produce an output stream with the desired composition.

A: Output gas totals 74 moles

B: Air (21 mole% O, the balance N)

C: pure oxygen, with a molar flow rate 1/5 of the molar flow rate of stream B

The output gas is analyzed and found to contain 3.0 mole% water. Draw and label a flow chart of the process, and calculate the volumetric and molar flow rate of water into the system, the molar flow rate of air into the system, and the mole fractions for the output stream.

A stream of pure propane (C3H8) and a stream of pure butane (C4H10) are both fed to a continuous combustion chamber, where they are burned with pure oxygen. Gas analysis indicates that the product gas from the combustion chamber contains 47.4 mole% H2O. The combustion gases are then fed to a condenser, where all of the water vapour is removed (as condensate) to give a gas stream containing 69.4 mole% CO2 and the balance is O2. basis of 100 mol/min...

Nitrogen (N2) and hydrogen (H2) gases are fed to a reactor in stoichiometric quantities to react to form ammonia (NH3). The reactor is operated to achieve a fractional nitrogen conversion of 0.25. The exit stream from the reactor is fed to a separator, which separates unreacted nitrogen and hydrogen from the ammonia. (a) Draw and label a PFD for the process described above. [10%] (b) Write down a balanced stoichiometric equation for the reaction. [5%] (c) If the feed is...

Benzaldehyde is produced from toluene in the catalytic reaction C6H5CH3 + O2 ? C6H5CHO + H2O Dry air and toluene vapor are mixed and fed to the reactor at 350.0°F and 1 atm. Air is supplied in 100.0% excess. Of the toluene fed to the reactor, 13.0% reacts to form benzaldehyde and 0.100% reacts with oxygen to form CO2 and H2O. The product gases leave the reactor at 379°F and 1 atm. Water is circulated through a jacket surrounding the...

A fuel gas consists of 75% butane (C4H10), 10% propane (C3H8) and 15% butene (C4H8) by volume. It is to be fed to the combustion chamber in 10% excess air at 25ºC, where it is completely burnt to carbon dioxide and water. The flue gases produced are to be used to generate 5 bar steam from water at 90ºC. (a) Write balanced equations for the combustion of each component of the fuel gas. (b) Explain the need for excess air....
