Question
The flow rate of vegetable oil was 160 microliters/min (vegetable oils molecular weight is 883 g/mol and density of 0.875 g/mL). The flow rate of the alcohol catalyst is 80 microliters/min with a molecular weight of 32.04 g/mol and a density of 0.79. Based on the flow rate of vegetable oil, what is the theoretical yield of biodiesel for flow reaction in mmol and mg?

The process is currently ope recovers 80% of the CO, fed to the aqueous stream. (a) Determine a value for the equilibrium distribution coefficient between the aqueous and gas streams (moles CO,/mole liquid/moles CO,/ mole gas). b) We'd like to improve the separation performance of the absorber. Frannie proposes using a new superadditive that increases the CO, solubility in the aqueous phase (increases the distribution coefficient) by 10%, that can be mixed with the incoming liquid stream. What is % recovery of CO, if the new additive is used? Zooey suggests stay- ing with the original aqueous solution, but splitting the liquid feed into two equal streams and operating two separators in a cross- current mode, as shown in the figure.

- Why is it needed to extract acid and base in roder to arrive at highly purified benzoic acid in a grignard reaction experiment?arrow_forwardAn aqueous 2-phase extraction method is used to purify a recombinant fusion peptide made in E. coli. To achieve the most efficient separation, 450 kg of a mixture of 19.7% w/w polyethylene glycol (PEG) and 17.7% w/w potassium phosphate salt in water is used. You notice there are some leftover solutions. You have: - 100 kg of a mixture of 20% w/w PEG in water - 150 kg of a mixture of 20% w/w PEG and 25% w/w salt in water Your supplies are the following: - 200 kg of an aqueous mix of 50% w/w PEG (stock solution) - 200 kg of an aqueous mix of 40% w/w salt (stock solution) - Unlimited water You’re an efficient engineer, so you’re going to use the leftover solutions first (waste not, want not, and all that). To get to that “most efficient separation,” how much of each stock solution and water is needed? You are going to use all of both leftover mixtures first.arrow_forwardThe removal rate constant for a chemical compound is 0.026 L/mg/d. What is the order of the observed reaction rate?
