. PFD, mass and energy balance In this Chapter the overall process flow diagram (PFD), with process description, mass and energy balances are presented. These balances are based on the ASPEN PLUS v8.2 simulation of the proposed design. The calculated overall plant mass balance and the key unit mass balances are presented in section 6.2. The energy balance will be provided in section 6.3 as well as the possible heat integration. 6.1 Process flow diagram The process flow diagram can be found in Appendix S – Process flow diagram. In this section the flow sheet will be explained and clarified. The first process step is the preparation of the feed flows for the reactor. All feeds and recycles are pressurized to 14 bar to overcome pressure drops and remain at a pressure of 12 bar at the reactor outlet (P01-P07). The fresh benzene feed (stream 06) is first mixed with the recycle benzene (stream 39) in the benzene mixer (M04). Fresh solvent is mixed (M02) by mixing fresh …show more content…
The reboiler temperature (calculated using ASPEN) is 212 °C. The column has 30 stages, a reboiler pressure of 2 bar and a reflux ratio of 0.11. Benzene leaves the column at the top (stream 31). From the top stream 2 wt% is purged (stream 38) and the remainder is recycled at 72 °C. The bottom product contains mainly aniline and phenol. This stream is cooled (E09) and the phenol is washed out (C05) using sodium hydroxide solution. The formed sodium phenolate is separated and send to outside battery limit (stream 35). The aniline product is retrieved from the wash column and send to outside battery limit (stream 33). 6.2 Overall mass balance Using Aspen, mass balances are generated. The methodology of the aspen simulation is given in Appendix T – Aspen Simulation. Table 6 gives the overall mass balance of the plant. All incoming and outgoing streams are summed to check whether the law of conservation of mass is not
For this lab, zeolite and magnetized zeolite were synthesized and compared with charcoal to find out with would be the most effective in the sequestering of Procion Red dye. Finding the concentration and absorbance of each zeolite, magnetized zeolite, and charcoal, along with a calibration curve, the best adsorbent is determined. Charcoal was the overall best sequestration of the Procion Red dye, since the adsorbent was highest compared to the others. Introduction Pollution has increased in the environment over the years, so the purpose of this experiment is to find the best adsorbent of chemicals to reduce the pollution.
Conclusion: Compare Trial 1 and Trial 2. The Trial 1 change in mass are 12.5g, however Trial 2 changes in mass is 1.2g. The Trial 1 change in mass is more than Trial 2. And I think the Low of Conservation of Mass violated in the Trial 1 is can be exist. Because the Trial 1 actually the soda with vinegar have Chemical reactions occur and chemical
The reaction was repeated 3 times and average rate noted. From these rates a graph was plotted which describes the relationship of the pressure produced and number of drops added. The reaction rates were measured by Kpa/min and were written to 4 figures for precise results. Time was measured by stop watch. Table 4 shows a summary of all the groups which participated in the lab session.

The dehydration of 2-methylcyclohexanol takes place at the bottom of the Hickman still. As the Hickman still heats up within the sand bath, the products evaporate and travel higher up in the still where they condense into a liquid and fall within the collection ring, thus separating the product from the remaining water. Drierite (CaSO4) is also added as a drying agent to absorb any leftover water within the product. The purity of the product will then be analyzed with infrared spectroscopy, paying attention to OH peak if it is present. Chemical Reactions: Data and Observations: Material Volume Mol.
Using the equation m = ΔTf/Kf , the molality of the unknown solution was found. Then, moles of unknown were calculated, which was used to calculate the average molar mass of unknown. Theory: After the experiment was completed, the data
In the round-bottom flask (100 mL), we placed p-aminobenzoic acid (1.2 g) and ethanol (12 mL). We swirled the mixture until the solid dissolved completely. We used Pasteur pipet to add concentrated sulfuric acid (1.0 mL) to the flask. We added boiling stone and assembled the reflux. Then, we did reflux for 75 minutes.

The overall project goals and central questions that has to do with the project is mostly trying to determine the isotonic concentration of the salt in potato roots and the use of the ideal soil salt conditions for the potato plant growth. In part 2, we had to test the enzyme activity that is in the was involved in the potato, so we can also determine the ideal soil pH conditions for the potato plant growth. In part 3, we were able to test absorb the leaf pigment at various wavelengths that determine the optimum light absorption conditions and was able to make recommendations for the light conditions that would be used un greenhouses. The goal of the first project is to determine the ideal soil salt for potato roots and we can relate this to the project is to find out if Solution A or Solution B has more solute in it. The goal of this project is to determine the meaning of Osmosis.
In Experiment One we will be recrystallizing Benzoic Acid from water. In Experiment Two we will be recrystallizing Benzoic Acid using a solvent pair made up of Methanol and Water. The Seven step process of recrystallization consists of adding a solid organic substance into a solvent, then dissolving the chosen solute, decolorizing the solution, filtering solids, then recrystallize the solute by slowly cooling

This experiment is an attempt to investigate the amount of water potential across root storage plant species. The root storage plant species that shall be used are the carrot and the potato and the method that shall be used is known as Chardakov’s method. Water potential is the tendency of water to enter or leave a cell. Water moves from an area or region of low water potential to an area of high water potential. It is important to note that the highest water potential is 0(the water potential of pure water) and the other water potential values are in negative numbers .
Materials Required: 1. Pellets of Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) 2. Phenolphthalein solution (1%) 3. Potassium acid phthalate (KHC8H4O4) 4. Graduated cylinder - 10 mL 5.
Abstract — This experiment was conducted to familiarize the students with the procedures regarding distillation—to be more precise, the separation of ethanol from an alcoholic beverage—using a distillation set-up consisting of boiling chips, a Bunsen burner, a condenser, a thermometer and several other materials. In the end, it was discovered that one may actually separate a homogeneous mixture, given that the components of said mixture differ in volatility and that they utilize a complete distillation set-up and follow laboratory safety rules and regulations. Keywords — Matter, homogeneous and hetereogeneous mixtures, distillation, volatility, boiling point I. INTRODUCTION There are typically two categories of matter, these are pure substances
