Limestone scrubbing is used to remove SO2 in a flue gas desulfurization (FGD) system. Relevant reactions are given below. A lime

stone mix is used that consists of 94% CaCO3 and 6% inert material. The actual feed rate of the limestone mix is 36,000 lb/hr. The SO2 in the flue gas is 20,314 lb/hr and the FGD efficiency is 97%. If the resulting sludge has 58% solids, determine the total sludge production rate (lb/hr). Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answer:

hello some data related to your question is missing attached below is the missing data

answer : 63700 Ib/hr

Explanation:

Given data :

Limestone mix : consists of  94% CaCO3  and 6% inert material

Actual feed rate = 36,000 Ib/hr

SO2 in flue gas = 20,314 Ib/hr

FGD efficiency = 97%

resulting sludge contains 58% solids

<u>Calculate the Total sludge production rate </u>

First : determine  SO2 removed in sludge

 = 0.97 * 20314

 = 19704.58 Ib/hr

next : moles of SO2 removed

= 19704.58 / 64 Ib/ Ib mol

= 307.88 Ib mol / hr

also  moles of CaSO3 produced = 307.88 Ib mol / hr

mass of CaSO3 = 307.88 * 120 = 36946.09 Ib/hr

Therefore Total sludge production rate

= 36946.09 / 0.58

= 63700.15  Ib/hr

A medium-sized jet has a 3.8-mm-diameter fuselage and a loaded mass of 85,000 kg. The drag on an airplane is primarily due to th
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

F_{thrust} ≅ 111 KN

Explanation:

Given that;

A medium-sized jet has a 3.8-mm-diameter i.e diameter (d) = 3.8

mass = 85,000 kg

drag co-efficient (C) = 0.37

(velocity (v)= 230 m/s

density (ρ) = 1.0 kg/m³

To calculate the thrust; we need to determine the relation of the drag force; which is given as:

F_{drag} = \frac{1}{2} × CρAv²

where;

ρ = density of air wind.

C = drag co-efficient

A = Area of the jet

v = velocity of the jet

From the question, we can deduce that the jet is in motion with a constant speed; as such: the net force acting on the jet in the air = 0

SO, F_{drag}-F_{thrust} = 0

We can as well say:

F_{drag}= F_{thrust}

We can now replace F_{thrust} with F_{drag} in the above equation.

Therefore, F_{thrust} = \frac{1}{2} × CρAv²

The A which stands as the area of the jet is given by the formula:

A=\frac{\pi d^2}{4}

We can now have a new equation after substituting our A into the previous equation as:

F_{thrust} = \frac{1}{2} × Cρ (\frac{\pi d^2}{4})v^2

Substituting our data from above; we have:

F_{thrust} = \frac{1}{2} × (0.37)(1.0kg/m^3)(\frac{\pi(3.8m)^2 }{4})(230m/s)^2

F_{thrust} = \frac{1}{8}   (0.37)(1.0kg/m^3)({\pi(3.8m)^2 })(230m/s)^2

F_{thrust} = 110,990N

F_{thrust}  in N (newton) to KN (kilo-newton) will be:

F_{thrust} = (110,990N)*\frac{1KN}{1,000N}

F_{thrust} = 110.990 KN

F_{thrust} ≅ 111 KN

In conclusion, the jet engine needed to provide 111 KN thrust in order to cruise at 230 m/s at an altitude where the air density is 1.0 kg/m³.

Most of the world’s mixed economies are a combination of a __________ economy and a __________ economy.
Elena L [17]

Answer:

The correct option is;

D. Market...Command

Explanation:

In a mixed economy, socialism and capitalism are combined in the economic policy, such the economy allows ownership of and offers protection for private property as well as provision of certain degree of allowance of capital utilization by the private sector. The government of a country with a mixed economic system can disrupt, obstruct, or restrict the activities taking place in the economy in order to meet the social objectives of the country's.
