A gas has a dry-basis composition of 9 mol% CO, 10mol% CO2, 1mol% O2, and 80mol% N2. The gas temperature and pressure are 600°C and 1 atm and it has a dew point temperature of 50°C (due tothe presence of water). The gas must be cooled to 400°C. This is accomplished by spraying liquid water at 20°C into the gas.The liquid water evaporates and leaves the cooler with the gas as water vapour. Calculate the required volumetric flow rate of cooling water (in L/h) for a feed of 1000 mol dry gas/h.

Natural Gas (1 mol/s) composed of 85 mol% methane, 8 mole% ethane and 7 mol% CO2 is used to generate heat in a boiler. The fuel is fed to the boiler with 25% excess air that has a relative humidity of 35%. Both natural gas and humid air are fed at 250C. Heat from the combustion is transferred to liquid water that enters the heat exchanger as a liquid at 250C and leaves as a vapor at 1 bar and...

A fuel gas containing 75.0 mole% methane and the balance ethane is burned completely with 35.0% excess air. The stack gas leaves the furnace at 800.0°C and is cooled to 350.0°C in a waste-heat boiler, a heat exchanger in which heat lost by cooling gases is used to produce steam from liquid water for heating, power generation, or process applications. Take as a basis 100.0 mol of the fuel gas fed to the furnace. The amounts of each of the...

A gas stream leaves a chemical plant at 85oC and 760 mmHg comprising 30 mole% acetone and the balance is nitrogen. As an attempt to recover the acetone as a liquid, the gas stream is then cooled at constant pressure in a condenser. The uncondensed acetone and nitrogen are released to the atmosphere. There are two different cooling fluids available: one at 25oC and one at – 10oC. a) Draw and label a flow diagram of the process b) Determine...

Using Raoult's law for water and Henry's law for nitrogen, calculate the pressure and gas-phase composition (mole fractions) in a system containing a liquid that is 1.200 mole% N2 and 98.80 mole% water in equilibrium with nitrogen gas and water vapor at 50.0°C. The Henry's law constant for nitrogen in water is recommended by NIST to be well represented by kH = 0.000625 exp[1300 (1/T – 1/298.15)] mol N2 / (kg H2O bar), where T is measured in Kelvin a)...

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.
