In a pyrolysis process, the product gas analyzed 6.7 % CO2, 0.2 % 02, 38.6 % CO, 51.6 % H2, 0.8 % CH4, and 2.1% N2. It entered the combustion chamber at 95 F and a pressure of 36.0 in. Hg, and was burned with 42 % excess air (dry), which was at 75 F and an atmospheric pressure of 29.4 in. Hg, 10 % of the CO remained unburned. If the exit gas was at 29.4 in. Hg and 405 F. 1) How many cubic feet of air were supplied per cubic foot of entering gas? 2) How many cubic feet of product gas were produced per cubic foot of entering gas?
