An air conditioning system supplies 1,000 m³/min of air containing 0.01 mol H2O/mol dry air. It is 20 °C and 1 atm. To conserve energy, part of the exhaust air containing 0.08 mol H2O/mol dry air is recycled and mixed with the fresh air from the air conditioner to produce a gross air feed to the room containing 0.035 mol H20/mol dry air. How many kg of water is picked up by the air per minute? What is the volumetric flow rate of the recycle stream? (27 °C and 99 kPa).
