Calculate the Gas Leaving the Purged Condenser in Oil Refinery
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.

The first year of my taxation course was full of disappointments as I often used to get the answers wrong and also my conception regarding the subject was not that clear. Then luckily while browsing for help in the internet I landed on this page of HwA and availed their services. The experience was wonderful and since I started to perform better in class with the help of the Australia taxation experts here in HwA.

When I moved to the US for my MBA I was in deep confusion over the absolutely different ways that the professors taught and expected the assignments and homework essays to be written. I desperately needed guidance from someone who had experience in the US MBA curriculum and how it was taught. At HwA I got the exact tutoring help that I was looking for. The online finance tutor not only helped me understand the concepts of finance management but also guided me through the process of writing the assignments and homework essays. My grades improved and so did my confidence.

I had missed the classes on Isometrics because I had to miss school for some family emergencies. With the existing course load I had not got time to catch up with the topic and so when time came to write the assignment on Isometrics I was absolutely clueless. Thanks to the basic mathematics assignment experts at HwA I was able to not only understand the assignment but also submit the essay on time. The quality of work provided is also very high and I have been noticing an upturn in my overall grades.

As a foreign student new to the methods of teaching in the States I desperately needed some personal tutoring with the topics of Stats for my graduate level program. HwA broke my misconception about online services being good only for school students and undergrads by providing me with excellent online stats tutoring for my Masters level requirements.

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
