Please, solve both by Polymath and by hand!

Fi = 1000 kmol/h The gas mixture used for the synthesis of ammonia is obtained by mixing two types of gases: 1 - the so-called technological gas composed of 78% N2, 20% CO and 2% CO2 2 - water gas composed of 50% CO and 50% H2. The composition of gases is given in mol%. Carbon monoxide must be completely removed as it poisons the ammonia synthesis catalyst. For this purpose, the water gas is reacted with water vapor in a special process: CO + H2O = CO2 + H2 X11 = 0,78 X12 = 0,20 X13 = 0,02 X14 = 0 X15 = 0 F2 F4 Reactor X21 = 0 X22 = 0,5 X23 = 0 X24 = 0,5 X2 = 0 X41 X42 = 0 X43 X44 X 5 = 0,05 F3 . . Assuming that we have 1000 kmol/h of technological gas and that: Nz: Hmolar ratio in the final stream must be 1: 3, The water vapor content in the final stream must not exceed 5 mol%. Calculate the composition of the final stream and the remaining flow rates. Assume the entire process is run in one process unit.
