(a)
Interpretation:
Dynamic model for the pressures in the given two surge tanks as well as for the air mass flow rates is to be developed.
Concept introduction:
For chemical processes, dynamic models consisting of ordinary differential equations are derived through unsteady-state conservation laws. These laws generally include mass and energy balances
The process models generally include algebraic relationships which commence from
In the steady-state process, the accumulation in the process is taken as zero.
(b)
Interpretation:
The model of the given surge tanks are to be modified for adiabatic conditions of operation. Also, the approach used in preparing the model is to be stated if the ideal gas law were not a good approximation for the given process.

- Can you answer this sequantially correct like show me the full process. Also, since it is chemical engineering related problem a perry's handbook is used. Thank youarrow_forwardchemical engineering Demonstrate how each specific enthalpy was calculated, from the reference state to the process state. Be thorough to the fullest. This is a material-energy balance. The answers are H(1) = 35.7 KJ/kmol, H(2) = 32.0 KJ/kmol, and H(3) = -1.26 KJ/kmol.arrow_forwardheat and mass transfer:arrow_forward

- 7) You are tasked with separating two proteins by ion exchange chromatography on a 30 cm long column with an inner diameter of 2 cm. The resin has a diameter of 100 μm and a void fraction of 0.3, and your mobile phase flows through the column at a rate of Q = 5 cm³/min. The Van Deemter coefficients A, B, and C have been determined to be 0.0228 cm, 0.0036 cm²/min, and 0.00053 min, respectively, for both proteins. Protein A elutes from the column with an average retention time of 27 min and standard deviation of 0.8 min. Protein B elutes from the column. with an average retention time of 33.8 min and standard deviation of 1.0. a) How many theoretical plates does the column contain? b) What flow rate (Q) will give you the maximum resolution? c) What is the minimum height of a theoretical plate for the system?arrow_forward4) A fixed bed adsorption unit contains rigid (incompressible) silica particles with a diameter of 120 um and porosity of 0.3. The resin bed is 200 cm long and has a diameter of 15 cm. A protein solution is pumped into the column at a rate of 50 L/min, and the mobile phase has a viscosity of 1.2 CP. a) What is the pressure drop for this system (in bar)? b) What would be the pressure drop if the particle diameter were decreased to 30 μm?arrow_forwardYou are part of a team constructing a pipeline to transfer shale gas produced at the oceanfloor to the coastline. The temperature of the pipeline is nearly constant at 2 oC. The pipelineis made of smooth stainless steel and is 0.3 m in diameter and 100 m long. The averagevelocity of shale gas is 10 m/s and the inlet temperature is 20 oC ** Useful shale gas properties at 20 oC (Table A-12 for propane gas):(use these values for calculations and validate them later)• Density (ρ) = 18.13 kg/m3• Cp = 1974 J/kg-K• Viscosity (μ) = 8.54*10-6 kg/m-s• Pr = 0.918• k = 0.01836 W/m-Ka) Is the flow laminar or turbulent?

- 3) A pilot-plant Podbielniak centrifugal extractor operating at 11,400 x g (this is G₁) is capable of processing 500 mL/min of filtered fermentation broth and 125 mL/min organic solvent, giving a recovery of 95%. The rotating cylinder inside the extractor has a diameter of 20 cm and is 2.5 cm wide. You need to scale up this extraction by using a larger Podbielniak extractor that has a diameter of 91 cm and width of 91 cm and delivers 2,300 x g (G2).

Your feed contains 100 mg/L protein and flows through both columns at 4 m³/h. Fresh resin enters the bottom of both columns (resin does not flow from the bottom column to the top column). The maximum resin flow rate that your pumps can comfortably handle is 120 kg resin/h. Experimental data suggest that the adsorption equilibrium can be modeled as qi=4ci where qi is in g protein/kg resin and c; is in g protein/L broth. (Pay attention with units!) a) What is the lowest concentration of proteins that you could get in the effluent from column 1 (indicated by the *) in mg/L?
