A single-effect evaporator is being used to concentrate 10,000 kg/h of tomato juice from 5% total solids to 30% total solids. The juice enters the evaporator at 20°C. The evaporator is operated with steam (85% quality) at 143.27 kPa. The vacuum inside the evaporator allows the juice to boil at 75°C. Calculate (a) the steam requirements and (b) steam economy for the process. Assume the condensate is discharged at 75°C. The specific heat of the liquid feed is 4.1 kJ/(kg°C) and the concentrated product is 3.1 kJ/(kg°C).

The evaporator is operated on Steam (80% quality) at 143.27 kPa. The vacuum in the evaporator allows the juice to boil at 80 ° C. The specific heat of the dilute material is 4.1 kJ / (kg ° C) and the concentrate product is 3.1 kJ / (kg ° C). Count it (a) Steam demand rate = Answer kg / hour. b. Steam economy when condensate temperature is released at 75 ° C. = Answer (kg of water evaporated / kg of steam)

Q3(a) A stream of benzene vapor at 580 °C and 1 atm is cooled and converted to a liquid at 25 °C and latm in a continuous condenser. (i) (ii) Illustrate a completely process path for the above process. Calculate the total enthalpy change for this process.

Tomato pulp (40% solids content) is heated by flowing it into a steam injection heater at a rate of 500 kg / hour. 85% quality steam under 180 kPa is supplied to the heater at a rate of 40 kg / hour. If it is assumed that the heat exchanger efficiency is 85% and the initial slurry specific heat is 3.2 kJ / (kg K), the slurry specific heat during the heating process corresponds to the function Cp = Cpw (water fraction) + Cps (solids fraction). a. Determine the temperature of the product leaving the heater when the initial temperature is 35 ° C. =....° C. b. Determine the total solids fraction of the product after heating. = ...%

A single effect evaporator was used to concentrate 8000 kg / hr of tomato juice from 5% total solids to 30% total solids. The juice enters the evaporator at 15 ° C. The evaporator is operated on Steam (85% quality) at 143.27 kPa. The vacuum in the evaporator allows the juice to boil at 75 ° C. The specific heat of the dilute material is 4.1 kJ / (kg ° C) and the concentrate product is 3.1 kJ / (kg ° C). Count it (a) Steam demand rate = kg / hour. b. Steam economy when condensate temperature is released at 75 ° C. = (kg of water evaporates / kg of steam)
