In the hydrodealkylation of toluene to produce benzene, a stream of toluene is mixed with a recycle stream and enters a reactor along with a stream of pure hydrogen. The reaction products at 530°C enter a condenser where they are cooled to 45.0°C. A vapor stream containing 0.55 mol CH4/mol leaves the process, and a liquid stream containing 0.75 mol benzene/mol and 0.25 mol toluene/mol enters a distillation column. The distillate of the column leaves the process at 800.0 mol/hr and contains 0.9000 mol benzene/mol and 0.1000 mol toluene/mol. The bottoms of the column contain 0.15 mol benzene/mol and 0.85 mol toluene/mol and is recycled back to the fresh feed. Hydrogen is fed into the process at 1850 mol H2/hr. This process is carried out at 760 mmHg. Draw the process flow diagram and describe (label) it fully by solving for the unknown variables for all the streams. Calculate the Single Unit and Overall Conversion (%) of toluene.

Consider a well-mixed tank filled with 200 L of liquid containing a chemical A at the concentration of 4 mol/L which decomposes following a first order kinetics RA=k.CA with a rate constant of k=0.05 min-1 . At t=0 an outlet stream starts to leave the tank with the flow rate of 5 L/min. After the liquid level falls to the half of the initial level, an inlet stream with CA=4 mol/L starts entering the tank at a flow rate of 5 L/min. Calculate the outlet stream concentration 30 minutes after the start of the operation.

Pure sulfur is burned with 63% excess air according to the
following reaction.
S + O2 = SO2 The furnace gases formed enter a reactor under a
pressure of 1 atm at 500 ° C.
80% of SO2 is converted into SO3 by SO2 +1/2 O2 =SO3 reaction.
According to this,
a) Calculate the equilibrium constant Kp of the SO2 +1/2 O2 = SO3
reaction. (10 points)
b) What should be the reactor pressure to increase the conversion
rate of SO2 to 95% at the same temperature?

You mix together two flows of water. The first flow is a saturated liquid at 300 kPa, moving at a rate of 2 kg/s. The second flow is a superheated vapor at 300 kPa and 300 °C, and is moving at a rate of 0.2 kg/s. If the outlet is similarly at 300 kPa, (a) what is the mass flow rate of the outgoing water, (b) what is the temperature of the outgoing water, and (c) What is the rate of entropy generation for this process?
