In this case, the decision needs to be made whether the residues from thermal waste treatment can be deposited in a landfill. For this purpose, the criterion TOC ≤ 3 wt-% must be met. Calculate the carbon content of the thermally treated waste sample and check if the criterion is fulfilled. Given: 10 g thermally treated waste sample • A total of 11.207 standard liters of gas is formed during TOC analysis The gas has a CO2 content of 4 mol-% • The resulting gas can be considered as an ideal gas."arrow_forward

The total conversion in the tank is calculated to be 60%. However,this conversion appears low.After a quick check, you realise that something in the mixing is not working correctly and as aresult, the tank is not optimally stirred.Following a few tests on residence times, you calculate that approximately 300 L of the tank do notinteract appreciably with the input or output streams. You therefore decide to modify the reactorby improving the stirring performance in order to obtain complete mixing in the reactor volume.arrow_forwardThe rate constant k for a certain reaction is measured at two different temperatures: temperature k 325.0 °C |1.7 × 1012 456.0 °C |3.0 × 1013 Assuming the rate constant obeys the Arrhenius equation, calculate the activation energy E, for this reaction.
