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?

A substrate is decomposed in the presence of an enzyme according to the Michaelis-Menten equation
with the following kinetic parameters:
Km = 20 g/L
Vmax = 12.0 g/L-min
(a) Determine the concentration of substrate after leaving the second reactor in a two-reactor series of
20-liter CSTRs. The flow rate is 2.00 L/min. The inlet substrate concentration is 40 g/L. The
enzyme concentration in the two reactors is maintained at the same value all of the time.
(b) Determine the conversion in terms of substrate conversion of the two-reactor system and the
conversion of a single CSTR equal to the total volume of the two-reactor system. Clearly indicate
the configuration with the greater conversion

For the sedimentation of a suspension of uniform particles in a liquid, the relation between observed sedimentation velocity Up and fractional volumetric concentration C is given by Up = UTɛ 4.8 where UT is the free-falling velocity of an individual particle. Calculate the concentration at which the rate of deposition of particles per unit area will be a maximum, and determine this maximum flux for 0.15 mm spheres of glass (density 2500 kg/m3 ) settling in water (density 1000 kg/m3 , viscosity 1 mNs/m2 ). It may be assumed that the resistance force F on an isolated sphere is given by Stokes’ law.

A one-shell pass, two-tube pass heat exchanger (1-2) is to cool at mh= 1.5 kg/s
oil (Cph = 2100 J/kg. oC) from Th,in = 90 oC to Th,out = 40 oC with water (Cpc = 4180
J/kg.oC) entering at Tc,in = 19 oC and mc = 1 kg/s. The overall heat transfer
coefficient Um is 250 W/m2.oC. Design the heat exchanger requires for the
process by using 2.5 cm (OD), 2.2 cm (ID) and 5.5 m long tubes. How will the design values change if the two-shell pass, four-tube pass exchanger (2-4) is
designed? Discuss your results.
