A mixture containing 10 moles % methane is flowing at a rate of 900 kg/h. Now as an engineer, your task is to dilute the concentration of methane so that it can be safe. Draw a flow chart of the descripted problem. Calculate the required flow rate of air in mole/h. Moreover, calculate the concentration of oxygen in percent by mass in the product gas. You may use 5% - 15% moles of methane in air as flammability limit.
