To evaluate the use of renewable resources, an experiment was carried out with rice hulls. After pyrolysis, the product gas analyzed 6.4% CO2, 0.1% O2, 39% CO, 51.8% H2, 0.6% CH4, and 2.1% N2. It entered a combustion chamber at 90 °F and a pressure of 35.0 in. Hg and was burned with 40% excess air (dry) at 70 °F and an atmospheric pressure of 29.4 in. Hg; 10% of the CO remains.

A wet gas from a field in Iran is processed through two stages of separation; first
stage separator operates at 220 psia and 71°F, while the stock tank operates at atmospheric
pressure and 69°F. The separator gas condensate ratio is 41,000 scf/STB and the stock tank gas
condensate ratio is 450 scf/STB. The molecular weights of the separator gas and stock tank gas
are 25.0 and 35.0 lb/lb-mol, respectively. The stock tank condensate gravity is 0.85 and its
molecular weight is 125 lb/lb-mol. Let us calculate the specific gravity of the reservoir gas in a
step-wise manner, by considering quantities for one STB of condensate. Note that 1.0 bbl is
