Question Number II Ethanol (EtOH) can be produced by the hydration of ethylene, C2H4 + H2O ⇔ C2H5OH, at 300°C and high pressure with a phosphoric acid catalyst. Downstream of the reactor, a condenser is used to separate the product, which contains only EtOH and H2O, from a recycle stream that mixes with the fresh feed before entering the reactor. The fresh feed contains 30 mol% C2H4 and the remainder is steam. The single pass conversion is 20%. a. Draw...

a) Calculate the equilibrium constant at 17 K for a reaction with ΔHrxno = 10 kJ and ΔSrxno = -100 J/K. (Don't round until the end. Using the exponent enlarges any round-off error.) b) Calculate the equilibrium constant at 146 K for the thermodynamic data in the previous question (Notice that Keq is larger at the larger temperature for an endothermic reaction) c) Calculate the equilibrium constant at 43 K for a reaction with ΔHrxno = 10 kJ and ΔSrxno...

Ethanol is produced commercially by hydration of ethylene and during this process a side reaction converts some the ethanol to diethyl ether (DEE). In one process, a fresh feed containing ethylene, non-condensable inerts, and water are mixed with a recycle stream. The combined stream is fed to the reactor and it contains 182 mol/min of ethylene. While the fresh feed contains 9 moles of ethylene per mole of inerts, after mixing with recycle stream, the mole ratio of inerts to...
