8. Anaerobic digestion of an industrial waste, largely acetic acid, produces carbon dioxide and methane gas.Calculate the volume of carbon dioxide and methane gas produced dailty at 20•C for an average daily wasteproduction of 500 kg of acetic acid.9. A city situated on a large river disposes of its treated wastes to the river on a continuous basis. The minimumflow in the river is 210 cu.m/s, and the discharge rate from the treatment plant is 12.5 cu.m/s. If the maximumacceptable limit for a certain pollutant is 1.0 ppm (1mg/L) in the downstream river, and the "background"concentration of this pollutant upstream is 0.4 ppm, what is the maximum concentration of the pollutant, inmg/L, that can be safely released from the treatment plant?

"The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a new strain of coronavirus. This new virus and disease were unknown before the outbreak began in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. On 30 January 2020, the Philippine Department of Health reported the first case of COVID-19 in the country with a 38-year-old female Chinese national. On 7 March, the first local transmission of COVID-19 was confirmed. WHO is working closely with the Department of Health in responding to the COVID-19 outbreak." Aki and her family were alarmed with the news they watched and so first thing in the morning they rush to the nearest convenient store to secure disinfectant and sanitizers but unfortunately the store already had empty shelves of the essentials they needed. They went to other stores searching and to their dismay they acquired nothing. They were on their way home when she suddenly remembered her past lesson on "solutions", and so she immediately ran back to the store and purchase…
23°C, calculate the gas constant, R. (assume: PH202 Lab Section 4) Hydrogen peroxide decomposes spontaneously slowly to form water and oxygen gas according to the following chemical equation: 2 H2O2 () → 2 H,O (1)+ O2 (g) This decomposition can be sped up with the addition of a catalyst. If 198 mL of H2O2 decomposes and the amount of oxygen gas collected over water is 72.5 L at 756 mmHg and : 1.0으) mL %3D
2) A feed containing 6.00 mol % propane (C3H8) in air enters a continuous combustion reactor at 30.0 moles/minute. The exit stream is analyzed and found to contain 5.88 mol % O₂ and 7.26 mol % CO2. Show that these measurements are not consistent with the stoichiometry of the combustion reaction.
10. A container is separated into two halves by a membrane. Your lab partner assistant, Thurmond, is supposed to place a MgCl2 solution on side 1 and a NaCl solution on side 2. He is then supposed to measure the rate of water movement across the membrane. Unfortunately, Thurmond is not very good about keeping complete lab notes and he has forgotten to write down some data and calculations. Using your knowledge of osmosis, complete the following table. Temperature is 15°C and the hydraulic conductivity for the membrane is 0.4 ml/atm sec. MgCl2 Concentration on Side 1 NaCl Concentration on Side 2 80 mM Osmolarity on Side 1 Osmolarity on Side 2 Difference in osmotic pressure 60 mosM across the membrane Jy 0.95 ml/sec Reflection coefficient (ơ) Direction of water movement

Note that in example 6.14, a settling tank is used to remove suspended solids from wastewater. The rate of flow of wastewater into the tank is 10L / s , and the influent concentration of SS is 200mg / L . The removal efficiency of the settling tank for SS is (60%. The calculated amount of SS (sludge) accumulating in the sludge zone each day is 103.68 kg/day .

Benzene and cyclohexane form a minimum-boiling homogeneous azeotrope at 1 atm and 77.4oC of 54.2 mol% benzene. Since they cannot be separated by distillation at 1 atm, separate them by homogeneous azeotropic distillation using acetone as entrainer in the sequence shown in Figure . The azeotropic-column feed consists of 100 kmol/h of 75 mol% benzene and 25 mol% cyclohexane.Determine a feasible acetone-addition rate so that nearly pure benzene can be obtained as bottoms product.
Solve the given sub-parts (a) If dry hydrogen gas at atmospheric pressure is burnt completely in a furnace with 32 % excess air, calculate the Orsat analysis of the flue gas from this furnace (b) furnace uses a coal the ultimate analysis shows 57.22 % C, 5.64 % H, 1.41 % N, 5.06 % S, and 14.67 % ash. If the sulfur in the ash is negligible and the excess air is 80 %, compute the Orsat analysis of the combustion gases.
Titanium tetrachloride can be produced by reacting titanium dioxide with hydrochloric acid. An ore containing 72% TiO₂ and 28% inerts and a solution of 55% HCI are available in the production of titanium tetrachoride. The single-pass conversion of titanium dioxide is 62%. The hydrochloric acid is fed into the reactor in 18% excess. Pure unreacted titanium dioxide is recycled back to mix with the fresh feed. For a titanium tetrachloride production rate of 1250 kg/h, determine: a) the mass rates of ore, HCI solution, recycle b) the composition of the final product c) the mass of titanium dioxide entering the reactor

Solid waste refers to the range of garbage arising from animal and human activities that are discarded as unwanted and useless. Solid waste is generated from industrial, residential and commercial activities in a given area, and may be handled in a variety of ways. Consider a household that generates a certain amount of wastes per day. Of this amount, bottles and can s represent 20 percent and are recycled by the family. 20 percent of paper wastes (32 percent total) are burned in the fire place. The remaining papers along with the rest of the wastes are put into the containers for collection. On a given day, 20 lb of consumer goods (food, newspapers, and magazines) are brought into the house. The family consumes 7 lb of food that day and 5 lb of food is stored. The magazines received represent 5 percent of the paper wastes of the day, and they are thrown away. Construct a material flow diagram of this problem and calculate the amount of solid wastes disposed of during this day.
