You are Plant Manager at the Hokomokee Nuclear Power Station in Moustafa County, which has two 1000 MWe PWRs and are planning the fuel cycle for the next ten years. You are beginning negotiations with your fuel supplier, Verma Fuels, and must choose between the 3.3% enrichment fuel you have been using and a new 5% enrichment fuel.  

-Compare the environmental consequences of use of the two different fuels – i.e., consider which might generate more or less waste.

URGENT

In each of the following configurations, identify the anode and rank in terms of approximate corrosion rates of the anode (fast to slow). All are 50 mm thick in seawater:

1 meter square titanium plate with a single 50 mm aluminum bolt in the center

1 meter square Brass plate with a single 50 mm silver plated bolt in the center

1 meter square aluminum plate with a 70 x 70 cm square titanium hatch bolted to it with titanium bolts.

In 2017, it was discovered that naked mole rats (Heterocephalus glaber) could survive up to 18 minutes in an anoxic (0% oxygen) environment without any permanent damage to the organism. The normal body temperature of naked mole rats is 30°C, making them poikilothermic animals that are able to operate at a range of body temperatures and to alter its body temperature based upon the environment. Even if the animals are warmed to 37°C, they still survive 6 minutes in an anoxic environment, which is still more than 5 minutes longer than the survival of other rodents like mice. You are already familiar with the H. glaber hemoglobin, but as usual, this does not fully explain the naked mole rat ability to survive anoxia.

Blood glucose concentrations during anoxia were found to be similar in mice and mole rats, but during normoxic (normal oxygen levels) conditions, naked mole rate had a blood glucose concentration of 3.49mM while mice had 6.66mM, making them appear hypoglycemic compared to other rodents and mammals.

Explain why elevated citrate levels are surprising, why lactate elevation is not, and why these elevated levels of citrate do not inhibit lactate production in the naked mole rat during anoxia.

Ethane (C2H6) is combusted in 18.1% excess oxygen (O2) in an adiabatic reactor. The feed of ethane enters the reactor at 25.8 mol/hr and 93.7°C. The stream exiting the reactor contains ethane, oxygen, carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO) and water (H2O), so ethane reacts by both complete and partial combustion reactions. The conversion of ethane is 15.8% and the conversion of oxygen is 12.3%. Assume that pressure effects are negligible. (a) Draw and label a process flow diagram. Number each stream and label the components (E=ethane; O2=oxygen; CO2=carbon dioxide, CO=carbon monoxide; W=water). (b) Calculate the component molar flow rates (mol/hr) for all of the exiting components. (c) Calculate the adiabatic flame temperature (°C) for the reactor. (d) If the reactor's insulation is damaged and the reactor could lose heat to the surroundings, would the exit temperature increase, decrease, or stay the same?

Methanol (CH3OH) is produced via the partial oxidization of methane (CH4). The fresh feed contains methane and oxygen that have been mixed in stoichiometric proportions. This feed is mixed with recycle gases. The single-pass conversion of methane is 10.0%. The stream leaving the reactor is passed into a separation process where the entire methanol, and none of the other materials, is removed. All of the remaining materials are recycled to be mixed with the fresh feed. Determine the feed rate of the stream entering the reactor required to produce 1000.0 mol/h of methanol. The following reaction is taking place.
