- Problem #1: The art of being a good chemical engineer is being able to quickly understand relationships between various phenomena. We oftentimes compare process variables (flow rate, temperature, pressure, etc.) to develop a mathematical understanding of a particular situation. Reactant concentration versus time, distillation pressure versus distillate (or bottoms) composition, and inlet flow rate versus outlet stream temperature of a heat exchanger are just a few of these. In gas chromatograph (GC), the GC converts a signal output (usually in mV) into a peak area. Calibration curves are made by testing the peak areas for different concentrations of a mixture and then fitting those areas to a linear expression. Using linear regression, develop the calibration curve for this dataset of various concentrations for monoethanolamine in toluene.

The coffeemaker initially contains 1 L of water at 14°C. Once boiling starts, it is observed that half of the water in the cof- feemaker evaporates in 32 min. Determine the power rating of the electric heating element immersed in water and the surface temperature of the heating element. Also determine how long it will take for this heater to raise the temperature of 1 L of cold water from 14°C to the boiling temperature.

- Using RCRA procedures, determine if the following are classified as hazardous wastes. State the reason why or why not is is hazardous. If it is a hazardous waste, state the RCRA waste category number. Assume that the industry porducing the waste is a RCRA hazardous waste generator. 1. Sawdust in a warehouse contaminated by a spill of pentachlorobenzene. 2. Sludge from the treatment of water from the chemical conversion coating of aluminum. 3. An aqueous industrial waste stream from a plastic manufacturing plant that is discharged to a river.arrow_forwardPowerplant cooling water with a temperature of 35 °C and a flowrate of 10 m3/s is discharged into a river with a temperature of 10 °C and a flowrate of 50 m3/s.a) What will the new temperature of the river be downstream of the mixing point? Draw and label your figure and state any assumptions.b) Using your knowledge of Henry’s law to justify your answer, how will this change in river temperature influence the amount of oxygen gas dissolved in the water?arrow_forwardA coal-fired 700 MW Power Plant has an efficiency of 35%, burns coal with an energy content of 10,000 BTU/lb, with 60% carbon content, 1.5% sulfur content.
