Question: 1 . Consider different conversion rates to determine how this will affect the feed requirements and process flowsheet. Daily production of MEA is 3 0
Consider different conversion rates to determine how this will affect the feed
requirements and process flowsheet.
Daily production of MEA is metric tons day however pure MEA is required at metric tonsday The rest is considered as additional water
Ethylene oxide required is metric tonsday
Aqueous ammonia feed is metric tonsday
Pure ammonia from the aqueous solution is : tonsday
Note: Ammonia feed was available at atm and deg C before going into the reactor and Ethylene Oxide was available at atm and deg C
A reaction temperature of C is maintained in the reactor, and a pressure of atmospheres to avoid the evaporation of ammonia.
