Question: SEP 2 : Multiple - unit separation process. F: All of the nitrogen and some of the hydrogen in Stream E . G: Recycle stream

SEP 2: Multiple-unit separation process.
F: All of the nitrogen and some of the hydrogen in Stream E.
G: Recycle stream-CO,CO2, and 10% of the hydrogen fed to SEP2.
a) Taking 100kmolh of Stream B as a basis of calculation, calculate the molar flow rates (kmolh) and
molar compositions of the remaining six labelled streams.
b) The process is to be used to provide 237kmolh of methanol. Scale up the flowchart of part (a) to
calculate the required fresh feed rate (SCMH), the flow rate of the reactor effluent (SCMH), and the
actual volumetric flow rate of the reactor effluent (m3h), assuming ideal gas behaviour.
c) Is the ideal gas assumption good based on molar volume value?
