7. The roasting of pyrites analyzing 85% FeS, and 15% gangue utilizes 40% excess air (FeS2 to SO2 )supplied at the rate of 358 m' /hr at 23°C , 743 mm Hg and 88% RH. A partial analysis of the cinder showed 25.92% FeS, and17.83% gangue. Only 65% of the FeS2 gasified is converted to SO, and the rest to SO3. Calculate the following per kg pyrite used: a) Complete analysis of the burner gas (5.4% SO2,8.6% O2 80.5% N2 , 2.9% SO3 and 2.6% H20 ) b) Weight of 15% Oleum formed from 85% H2SO4, If all the SO2 reacts in the converter (1.72)

7. The roasting of pyrites analyzing 85% FeS, and 15% gangue utilizes 40% excess air (FeS2
to SO2 )supplied at the rate of 358 m /hr at 23°C, 743 mm Hg and 88% RH. A partial
analysis of the cinder showed 25.92% FeS, and17.83% gangue. Only 65% of the FeS2
gasified is converted to SO2 and the rest to SO3 .
Calculate the following per kg pyrite used:
a) Complete analysis of the burner gas (5.4% SO2 ,8.6% O2
80.5% N2 , 2.9% SO3 and 2.6% H2O )
b) Weight of 15% Oleum formed from 85% H,SO4, If all the SO2
3
reacts in the converter
(1.72)
