Answer to Question #94525 in Chemical Engineering for pales christine

Question

Producer gas analyzing 25.3% CO, 13.2% H2, 0.4% CH4, 5.4% CO2, 0.5%O2, and 55.2% N2 is burned in excess air at 25°C,245 torrs and 60%RH.Partial orsat analysis of the stack gas shows 16.3% CO2, 1.79%CO and 0.72% H2. Calculate:
A. Percent Excess Air
B. Complete Orsat Analysis Of The Stack Gas .

Answer 1

A) 25.3+5.4= 30.7%

30.7% - 16.3% = 14.4 %

In air have 0.035 % CO2 and 14.4 x 0.035 = 50.4 %.

B) 16.3% CO2, 1.79%CO and 0.72% H2, 12.39% CO, 13.2% H2, 0.4% CH4, 0.5%O2, and 55.2% N2
