Fueloil containing a mixture of 90 mol% propane and the rest carbon disulfide is burned to completion in 150% excess air inside a furnace. The furnace exhaust gas passes through a scrubber, where 95% of the CO2 entering is absorbed in ammoniated water and removed. In addition, some water vapor in the combustion product is condensed. Everything else exits the scrubber in the overhead gas, which is split into two streamsafter leaving the scrubber: one stream is recycled and mixed with fresh combustion gases from the furnace before entering the scrubber; the other stream is passed to a tall stack. Assume the combustion products are SO2, CO2, and H2O. Required:
a. Why do you think some of the scrubber overhead gas is recycled?
b. Draw a fully-labeled process flow diagram. If it is possible to calculate the feed rate of ammoniated water to the scrubber, do so.

An open feedwater heater operates at steady state with liquid entering at inlet 1 with t? = 40°c and pl = 1 .2 mpa. water vapor att2-200°c and p2 = 1.2 mpa enters at inlet 2. saturated liquid water exits with a pressure of pa 1.2 mpa. neglect heat transfer with the surroundings and all kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the mass flow rate of steam at inlet 2 if the mass flow rate of liquid water at inlet 1 is given as 2 kg/s.

10 kg of co2 is initially contained at 400 kpa and 300 k. the gas constant for carbon dioxide is 189 j/lkg k) and has a specific heat ratio, k, of 1.289. isentropic expansion then occurs until the pressure is 200 kpa. a) determine the initial volume of co2 in m. b) determine the final temperature in k. c) determine the work done by the system during the expansion kl.

To save energy, the air supply to a 2000 ft office has been shut off overnight and the room temperature has dropped to 40°f. in the morning, the thermostat is reset to 70°f and warm air at 120 f begins to flov in at 200ft'/min. the air is well mixed within the room, and an equal mass flow of air at room temperature (changing with time) is withdrawn through a return duct. the air pressure is nearly 1 atm everywhere. ignoring heat transfer with the surroundings and kinetic and potential energy effects, estimate how long it takes for the room temperature to reach 70°f. plot the room temperature as a function of time.
