Question
You are working in an oil refinery and to meet air quality standards you must remove trace sulfur compounds that come along with the crude oil. These H2S and SO2. A process has been suggested to convert these compounds into elemental sulfur and water using the following reaction:
2H2S(g) + SO2(g) → 3S(s) + 2H2O(g)
A drawing of the process is given below. You have two input streams F1 and F2 which are combined together and this new stream, F0 is connected to the recycle stream R. The two feed streams are fed at a stoichiometric ratio as shown above but contain a fair amount of CO2 as is shown. The solid sulfur is completely removed and the condenser completely removes the water. The gas stream leaving the condenser is split into a purge stream and recycle stream.
a. The flow in F1 is 100.00 lb-moles/sec.
b. The overall process conversion of H2S is 95% (actually removed).
c. The recycle to feed ratio is R/F0 = 15.0

What percentage of gas leaving the condenser is purged?
Summary
The question belongs to Chemical Engineering and it is about an oil refinery where trace sulfur compounds such as H2S and SO2 have to be removed from crude oil. The question deals with the percentage of gas leaving the condenser being purged.

To be honest, chemical engineering is not my field. However, I had to deal with heat transfer assignments during one of my metallurgy assignments. The experts here are spot on and helped me get good grades without any hassle. The experience had been wonderful to say the least.
Chemical Engineering assignments need accuracy and I have got that accuracy every time from the assignment help experts at TheReliableTutor with my Chemical engineering transport phenomenon assignment and chemical engineering transport phenomenon homework help. I am definitely signing up for the next semester
The time and effort given to each individual student by the New Zealand Accounting Assignment writing experts at HwA is what makes me keep coming back to them for all my accounting assignment help requirements. I am a post graduate student of accounting from the University of Otago in Christchurch and with the help of the accounting assignment help experts from New Zealand I have been performing better and better in class.

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
