Calculate the Individual and Total Flow Rates in the 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 is the individual and total flow rates of F0?
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 individual flow rate and total flow rates for F0.

WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY
I was facing a lot of problems with finding the right and relevant material for my quantitative chemistry assignment and running out of time before the submission deadline. The chemistry assignment expert at HwA helped me find the right research material and also helped me finish the quantitative chemistry assignment on time.

During my second trimester one of my class-mates told me about TheReliableTutor.com. However, back then I thought I do not require any help. But I was proved wrong shortly and contacted them. The nursing assignment tutors are really fantastic and they work tirelessly till you get what you exactly asked for. Really happy with the service I got

Structuring the arguments while analyzing the Civil Rights movement in America, for my term paper, was bit of a challenge for me. I was unsure of how to proceed or gather information. Researching and then jotting the entire thing down needed certain help and I got that them from HwA. Here the experts not only helped me pinpoint some topics to write but also did a marvellous job in researching and helping out with the entire assignment. It is needless to say that I received excellent grades from my term paper advisor in college.

I used to have nightmares about my C++ and Java programming assignments. I never could ever wrap my head around the object oriented programming languages till I came across HwA. Their programming tutors by far the best in the industry and they helped me get excellent scores.

I started taking their help while pursuing my managerial economics course in New York. So far it is a wonderful experience as unlike most of the online tutoring services, the econ tutors at HwA has industry experience and that enhances the quality of the economics papers.

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
