The following block flow diagram shows the propane dehydrogenation process in a catalytic reactor. The following chemical reaction takes place in the reactor C3H3 ==> C3H + H2 The process is designed to achieve 33% conversion of the propane fed to the reactor. The reaction products are then sent to a separator where it is separated into two streams i.e., a product stream and a recycle stream. The recycle stream contains 2.5% propylene and 0.45% hydrogen of the reactor outlet stream while the product stream contains 0.3% propane of the reactor outlet stream. Based on 1000 mol/hr of feed, conduct material balance using MS-Excel and find out the overall stream molar flowrates as well as molar composition of each stream. Feed 100 mole % Propane Product Reactor Separator o O Recycle
