Calculate the Single Pass Conversion of Reactor 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 is the single pass conversion of the reactor?
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 is about the single pass conversion of the reactor.

WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY
My story with HwA started on a mid-term day, during my graduation as I was stuck with an economics assignment solution. From then onwards I constantly have obtained help from HwA and they have never disappointed me ever.
Heather Mead Student
I was having a difficult time understanding the laws of conservation of mass and energy and use of tie components. With the brilliant tutors at TheReliableTutor I now have a much clearer understanding of the concepts. Their timely and professional tutoring with my chemical engineering assignments has helped me improve my grades and I am very satisfied with the way they provide their services
Walter Mehigan Student
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.
AnandVidyashankar Student
My concepts regarding database management was not clear. For that reason writing the appropriate queries was a big challenge for me. Then while I was seeking for help online, I came across this wonderful website. Everything changed ever since and my grades also improved immensely.
Russell Bowden Student
Had a great help with dynamic SQL programming in Oracle database from HwA and the experts are very helpful. I kept constant touch with HwA during my entire Oracle course and as a professional now, I must admit that I owe a lot to HwA for my success.

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
