Process of Removing Trace Sulfur Compounds From Crude Oil
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 purpose of the purge stream?
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 purpose of purge stream in the process.

WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY
I was a bad place with my electricity assignment and was not sure how to apply the laws to get the numerical assignments done. Then I came in contact of one of my seniors in my college who told me about HwA. The service I got here was awesome and more than giving me a A in my assignment they also treated me with respect and helped me learn a lot.
Nicola Watson Student
My balance sheet never tallied before I approached HwA for help. I always used to mess things up. My ideas regarding the items to be entered where shady and I needed serious help. The balance sheet experts of HwA were of a great help and now I have gained much confidence in the subject.
Julie Lee Student
Computer programming languages are such tough assignments to deal with. I am glad that I found TheReliableTutor and their online Visual C++ programming assignment help expert. I am very impressed with the quality and accuracy of the coding. Experts and quality control definitely make the Visual C++ programming language assignments free of plagiarism and unwanted errors.
Sophia Williams Student
From my undergraduate course till my master degree, I have been a regular client of HwA. The experts around here not only help you with the solutions of particular assignment but also at the same time helps you clear the concepts. It is like a marvellous bond and connection I share with this website.
Peter Walsh 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.

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
