Textbook Question
Chapter 6, Problem 6.85P
A 10.0 wt% aqueous solution of sodium chloride is fed to an evaporative crystallizer operated under a partial vacuum. Evaporation of water concentrates the remaining solution beyond its saturation point at the crystallizer temperature and causes crystallization of NaCl. The crystallizer product is a slurry of solute crystals suspended in a saturated solution at 80°C. The unit is to produce 1000 kg NaCl(s)/h. The solubility of NaCl in water is given by Figure 6.5−1.
(a) Derive expressions for the required rate of evaporation of water (kg/h) and the mass ?ow rate of solution in the exit slurry in terms of the mass ?ow rate of the feed stream to the crystallizer. Determine the minimum possible feed rate (explain why it is the minimum rate) and the corresponding values of the evaporation rate and exit solution ?ow rate.
(b) The pump that conveys the exit slurry from the crystallizer to a downstream ?lter cannot handle material containing more than 40 wt% solids. Determine the maximum feed rate to the crystallizer and the corresponding evaporation rate.

2) Chlorinated solvents such as carbon tetrachloride (CCI4) can be degraded in a process called
reductive dechlorination where Cl atoms are removed and replaced with H atoms. For
example:
CCl4 + H+ +2е¯ CHCl3 + CI Eº = 0.67 V
In the process of in situ bioremediation an electron donor such as acetate (CH3COO¯) is
typically added and is oxidized to provide the electrons for the reduction of CCl4. In
groundwater devoid of oxygen, nitrate typically serves as the electron acceptor. Answer
the questions below using thermodynamics data and that provided above.
i) Can CCl4 could serve as an electron acceptor for acetate?
ii) Which electron acceptor, CCl4 or NO3, would be thermodynamically preferred?
iii) What do the results in i and ii imply for remediation in an aquifer that also
contains nitrate?
Problem 4.3
A thermal power plant plans to replace 20 vol.% of its natural gas by renewable hydrogen
from a nearby facility. In its public announcement, the company claims a corresponding (20%)
reduction in CO2 emissions, which has been challenged by an environmental group. Can you
do necessary calculations to settle the issue and avoid possible public embarrassment for the
company?
