An ideal gas known as Minesium (MW=34.0) is flowing at a steady rate of 0.125 lbmol/min through a 62.5 in2 circular tube at a temperature of 185 °F and pressure of 42.0 psig. What is the velocity (ft/s) of this ideal gas? Assume Patm = 14.7 psia. The correct answer is 0.586 ft/s, but I don't understand how to get this answer.

Two representative pollutants are radon (222Rn) and benzene. Parameters needed for the estimation are listed in the table below. Answer the following questions.

(a) Estimate the steady-state radioactivity in the station in Bq m-3.

(b) Estimate the steady-state concentration of benzene both in mg m-3 and in ppbv. Molecular weight of benzene is 78 g mol-1. Assume 298 K and 1 atm (= 101,325 Pa).

(c) Although regulatory limit of indoor benzene concentration is 30 mg m-3 in Korea, researchers argue that it should be as low as 1.3 mg m-3 considering carcinogenic risk of benzene. Can you lower the benzene concentration as low as for protection of citizens’ health? Suggest potential options to lower benzene concentration in the station.

we discussed two-film theory and the use of the overall mass transfer coefficients that will be one of our foundational components in solving practical mass transfer problems over the course of the semester. In your own words, explain what two-film theory is and how it simplifies real mass transfer across an interface? How does the overall mass transfer coefficient develop from two-film theory? Finally, what is the difference between the overall mass transfer coefficients based on the gas and liquid phase and why might we use one over the other?

A mixture of n-heptane (A) and ethyl benzene (B) is to be separated in a distillation column operated at 1 atm. The feed flowrate is 300 mol/h and contains 40 mol% n-heptane. 60 % of the feed is liquid. It is required to obtain an overhead product containing 96 mol% n-heptane and a bottom product containing 5 mol% n-heptane. Find the following:

a) The distillate and bottom flowrates

b) The minimum reflux ratio

c) The minimum number of stages

d) The number of stages at a reflux ratio of 1.5Rmin

A pulp mill utilizing the saw dust from nearby lumber mills to produce a market pulp for paper production. A recent development had the company thinking of increasing the pulp production by 50% for entering the nonwoven market. A close examination at the pulp mill has the engineers to conclude that the digesters were the bottleneck. Currently, the woodchips were steamed, mixed with a pulping liquor and underwent delignification at 150°C for 3 hours. For each load of woodchips, a minimum of 2 hours is needed for loading, heating the digester up, explosive decompression unloading, and cleaning up the digester for the next load. Your task is to find a way to ease the bottleneck quickly at a low cost. State your assumptions clearly and your solution to the problem as stated.
