Table 1: Gas composition
\table[[Component,Composition (%)],[Carbon Dioxide,0.654],[Nitrogen,0.22],[Methane,97],[Ethane,0.919],[Propane,0.561],[i-Butane,0.161],[n-butane,0.195],[i-pentane,0.165],[n-pentane,0.125]]
Your answer needs to include relevant graphs, information for each component and a detailed and labelled and explained process flow diagram.
Task 2:
You were asked to evaluate the following process used to produce acetylene from methane. The following reactions takes place during the process:
CH4+O2CO+H2+H2O
2CH4C2H2+3H2
C2H22C+H2
CO+H2OlarrCO2+H2
(1)x2=1
(2)xCH4=0.35
(3)xc2H2=0.05
(4) xco=0.10
The feed flow of methane is given per group in kgmole/h (100% pure) and oxygen enough is used to have full conversion of oxygen and enough heat to trigger the desired pyrolysis of methane to produce acetylene.
Calculate the molar composition of the products leaving the reactor by hand using material balance.
Calculate the amount of carbon dioxide and hydrogen generated during the process. Support your calculations by the given data and balanced reaction.
Determine the selectivity of acetylene over the side products.
Calculate the extent of the reaction.
