5. Ethanol dehydrogenation reaction is carried out with the feed entering at 300°C. The feed contains 90
mol% ethanol and the balance acetaldehyde and enters the reactor at a rate of 150 mol/s. Heat is
transferred to the reactor at 2400 kW. Thus, the outlet temperature is 253°C. The chemical equation and
flowchart of the process is given below:
