180 kg/h of a liquid feed enters an extraction column with 98% paraffin oil and 2% ethyl alcohol at room temperature and pressur

e. Liquid absorbent is 100% water. Required recovery (extraction) of ethyl alcohol from paraffin oil is 97%. Given that paraffin oil and water are immiscible with each other and the extraction column operates in a counter current fashion. Assume isothermal and isobaric conditions and that only ethyl alcohol is absorbed. Equilibrium relation between mass fractions of ethyl alcohol in water and paraffin oil is given by Xwater = 1.7544 * Xparaffin oil (a) Find minimum amount of water required (Answer – 97.5 kg/hr) (b) If you have 1.5 times minimum water amount, how many equilibrium stages are required?

Why does the auto industry prefer uniform (national) standards for automobile emissions as opposed to regionally varying standar
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

Explanation:

For automobile emission, a uniform standard is preferred, because no unnecessary advantage is given by it to any company that is located in particular states where the regional standards are less severe.

Since pollution has its impact across the states and in the whole of the USA, then there should be uniform standards across all the states. It will also invalidate the impact of regional standards as a factor in the selection of plant locations for the automobile company. It means that a state offering less valid emission standards, will attract more companies to herself and it will be against the other states who care more about the natural environment. It can make more states to opt for the permissive emission standards, that will be more harmful to the USA as a country, than the good. So, a uniform standard is preferred to eliminate it as a factor in plant location decisions.

Yes, uniform standards are beneficial to everyone, because it will bring effective control upon the pollution level because there will be no state where the culprit firm can hide. Besides, it is more effective as efforts done towards environment conservation.

A binary geothermal power plant uses geothermal water at 160°C as the heat source. The cycle operates on the simple Rankine cycl
bogdanovich [222]

A binary geothermal power operates on the simple Rankine cycle with isobutane as the working fluid. The isentropic efficiency of the turbine, the net power output, and the thermal efficiency of the cycle are to be determined

Assumptions :

1.  Steady operating conditions exist.

2.  Kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible.

Properties:  The specific heat of geothermal water ( c_{geo}[) is taken to be 4.18 kJ/kg.ºC.  

Analysis (a) We need properties of isobutane, we can obtain the properties from EES.

a. Turbine

PP_{3} = 3.25mPa = (3.25*1000) kPa\\= 3250kPa\\from the EES TABLE\\h_{3} = 761.54 kJ/kg\\s_{3} = 2.5457 kJ/kg\\P_{4} = 410kPa\\\\s_{4} = s_{3} \\h_{4s} = 470.40kJ/kg\\\\T_{4} = 179.5^{0} C\\\\h_{4} = 689.74 kJ/KG\\\\ The  isentropic  efficiency, n_{T} = \frac{h_{3}-h_{4}  }{h_{3}- h_{4s} }

==\frac{761.54-689.74}{761.54-670.40} \\=\frac{71.8}{91.14} \\=0.788

b. Pump

h_{1} = h_{f} @ 410kPa = 273.01kJ/kg\\v_{1} = v_{f} @ 410kPa = 0.001842 m^{3}/kgw_{p,in} =  \frac{v_{1}(P_{2}-P_{1})   }{n_{p} } \\\\= \frac{0.01842(3250-410)}{0.9} \\\\ =5.81kJ/kg\\h_{2} =h_{1} + w_{p,in}\\          = 273.01+5.81\\           = 278.82 kJ/kg\\\\w_{T,out} = m^{.}  (h_{3} -h_{4} )\\=(305.6)(761.54-689.74)\\=305.6(71.8)\\=21,942kW\\\\

W^{.} _ {P,in} = m^{.} (h_{2} -h_{1}) \\=m^{.}  w_{p,in \\=305.6(5.81)\\\\=1,777kW\\W^{.}  _{net} = W^{.} _{T, out} - W^{.}  _{P,in} \\= 21,942-1,777\\=20,166 kW\\\\HEAT EXCHANGER\\\\Q_{in} = m^{.} _{geo} c_{geo} (T_{in-T_{out} } )\\=555.9(4.18)(160-90)\\=162.656kW\\

c. The thermal efficiency of the cycle  n_{th}  =\frac{W^{.} _{net} }{Q^{._{in} } } \\\\= \frac{20,166}{162,656} \\=0.124\\=12.4%
