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
I was really struggling with the Networking engineering dissertation topic, my professor asked me to work on, in my last semester. Then I came across TheReliableTutor and they really have brilliant engineering dissertation and thesis writers. The experts have worked on my Engineering Questions since then and now I am in my 7th semester and still never got below grade A in any of my Electrical Engineering Assignments.

I was on the verge of failing my course when i found these guys. The tutors are excellent. They helped me improve my grade and pass the course with flying colors.

Biology is such an exact subject that you need to be absolutely clear about the concepts before you sit down to write an assignment. When I moved to the US for my masters the professors wanted us to learn the subject by making us work more and more on our own. I was seriously getting stressed with all the hours I was spending on writing assignments without actually learning anything. Here TheReliableTutor.com biology tutor helped me bridge the gap and now I am much more confident."

Emily Donaghue: With the course load and the pressure of submitting multiple assignments at the same time I was hardly getting any real information about the subject. My entire time was spent in running from pillar to post trying to complete the various assignments. Once I took the services of HwA for my power systems engineering assignment I was thoroughly impressed with their professionalism and quality and signed up for their package for the entire semester.

The nursing expert of HwA has actually cleared by idea about gastrointestinal anatomy and helped me in several occasions with critical case study solutions involving gastrointestinal issues of the patients.

This solution is perfect ...thanks
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
