- A pilot plant reactor was charged with 50 kg naphthalene and 200 kg (98% by wt) H2SO4. The reaction goes to 90% completion. The product distribution was found to be 18.6% monosulfonate naphthalene and 81.4% disulphonate naphthalene. Calculate the complete analysis of the product.arrow_forwardA steady-state process to recover crystalline potassium chromate (K,CrOz) from an aqueous solution of this salt is required. Four thousand kilograms per hour of a solution that is one-third K,CrO, by mass is joined by a recycle stream containing 36.4% K2CrO7, and the combined stream is fed into an evaporator. The concentrated stream leaving the evaporator contains 49.4% K,CrO; this stream is fed into a crystallizer in which it is cooled (causing crystals of K,CrO, to come out of solution) and then filtered. The filter cake consists of K,CrO, crystals and a solution that contains 36.4% K,CrO, by mass; the crystals account for 95% of the total mass of the filter cake. The solution that passes through the filter, also 36.4% K,CrO,, is the recycle stream. 1- Draw the flowchart of the system and put all known information. 2- Calculate the rate of evaporation, the rate of production of crystalline K,CrO7, the feed rates that the evaporator and the crystallizer must be designed to handle, and…arrow_forwardI need a clear answer by hand, not by keyboard and solve very fast in 15 min | dybalaarrow_forward

In an ethanol production plant, a separator produces a 99% ethanol product from a feedstock stream containing 85% water and 15% ethanol at a rate of 450 Ib/min. The separator has two outlet streams: the ethanol product outlet stream (99% ethanol) and a residual water stream. 30% of the feedstock is bypassed and mixed with the residual water stream leaving the separator. If 60% of the ethanol entering the separator is recovered in the product stream, determine the composition of the residual water stream just after leaving the separator and the composition of the residual stream after mixing with the bypass stream.arrow_forward
