4) 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?
You 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? Is the flow hydrodynamically and thermally fully developed?(circle your answer below and provide justification. • Laminar vs. Turbulent• Hydrodynamically developing vs. developed• Thermally developing vs. fully developedJustification: b) Calculate convective heat transfer coefficient (h). c) Calculate the exit temperature of the shale gas. d) Are the shale gas properties…
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). What flow rates (in L/min) should be used in the larger extractor to achieve the same recovery efficiency?
