1. Calculate the steam consumption and the amount of juice per hour that can be concentrated from 12% to 20% solids content in an existing single effect evaporator with 30 m² heat transfer area. It is given that the juice enters the evaporator at 50°C, the boiling temperature in the evaporator is 60°C, and saturated steam at 100°C is used as the heating medium. Assume that the overall heat transfer coefficient is 1000 W/m²°C and the heat capacity of the juice is given by the equation Cp =1672 + 2508 Xw (in J/kg°C), where xw is the water mass fraction of the juice.

Reactive Processes

Reactive processes are the processes in which any reaction occurs. The reactions can be any combination reaction, decomposition reaction, combustion reaction, oxidation reaction, reduction reaction, neutralization reaction, displacement reaction, or double displacement reaction.
