A gas stream flowing at 1000 cfm with a particulate loading of 400 gr/ft3 discharges from a certain industrial plant through an

80% efficient cyclone. A recent law requires that the emissions from this stack be limited to 10.0 lb/hr, and the company is considering adding a wet scrubber after the cyclone. What is the required efficiency of the wet scrubber

<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>

Volume of gas stream = 1000 cfm (Cubic Feet per Minute)

Particulate loading = 400 gr/ft3 (Grain/cubic feet)

1 gr/ft3 = 0.00220462 lb/ft3

Total weight of particulate matter = 1000 \mathrm{cfm} \times 400 \mathrm{gr} / \mathrm{tt} 3 \times .000142857 \mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{ft} 3 \times 60=3428.568 \mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{hr}

Cyclone is to 80 % efficient

So particulate remaining = 0.20 \times 3428.568 \mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{hr}=685.7136

emissions from this stack be limited to = 10.0 lb/hr

Particles to be remaining after wet scrubber = 10.0 lb/hr

So particles to be removed = 685.7136- 10 = 675.7136

Efficiency = output multiply with 100/input = 98.542 %

The atmosphere within a room is at 70 °F dry-bulb temperature, 50 percent degree of saturation, and 14.696 psia pressure. The in
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Given that the temperature of the window is below the dew point it will condensate.

Explanation:

A psychrometric chart (like the one attached) will give you the information needed. This chart is for 14.696 psia.

On the bottom horizontal axes you have the dry-bulb temperature, in this case 70°F, going up from this point you can reach the 50% relative humidity curve (red point on chart), going horizontally from this point to the 100% relative humidity you get the dew point temperature (the point at which moisture will condensate) (blue point on chart). In this case the dew point is 50°C. Given that the temperature of the window is below the dew point it will condensate.

__________ affect(s) the amount of air conditioning required.
Grace [21]

Answer:

Option D

All the above

Explanation:

Depending with the number of occupants in a building, the number of air conditioners required can either be increased or reduced. For instance, if the building is to be a classroom of over 50 students, 1 air-conditioner can't serve effectively. Similarly, the activity of occupants also dictate the amount of air conditioners required since if it's a gym room where occupants exercise often then the air conditioners required is different from if the room was to serve as a  lounge. The appliances that also operate in a room require that air conditioners be installed as per the heat that may be generated by the appliances.
