Written Homework Problem Set 4; 115 points
Due Date: Friday, October 1st by 5:00 PM EST on Crowdmark
1. (40 pts.) Ethanol is produced by the hydration (addition of water) of ethylene, and some of the
product is converted to diethyl ether in a side reaction. A feed to a reactor contains 2.5 times as
much steam as ethylene.
a. (10 pts.) Write out the correctly balanced chemical equations for the two reactions
occurring in the reactor.
b. (30 pts.) If the fractional conversion of ethylene is 0.65 and the yield is 30%, find the
composition of the product gas. (*Hint: you will need to choose an initial feed basis)
Use an atomic species approach when solving this problem to receive full credit.

2. (40 pts) In the Wacker process, ethylene (C2H4) is oxidized by oxygen gas (O2) to produce
acetaldehyde (C2H4O). However, acetic acid is also produced (C2H4O2) as a side product. The
selectivity for acetaldehyde over acetic acid with the reactor you are using is 12, both for overall
and single-pass. The product stream is then fed to one condenser that removes all of the acetic
acid, followed by another condenser that removes all of the acetaldehyde. The remaining
components comprise a vapor stream, 10.0% of which is purged to the outside and the remainder
of which is recycled back to a mixing point prior to the reactor entrance. Your boss wants a
85.0% overall yield of acetaldehyde from ethylene and is willing to allow a molar flow rate of
oxygen in the feed stream that is 15 times larger than the molar flow rate of ethylene in the feed
stream.
a. (5 pts) Write balanced chemical reactions for this process.
b. (10 pts) Draw and label a diagram for this process.
c. (10 pts) Determine the composition of the purge stream.
d. (10 pts) Determine the single-pass conversion of ethylene and single-pass yield of
acetaldehyde.
e. (5 pts) How would a change in the fraction of vapor stream that is purged impact the
overall conversion of ethylene?

3. (35 pts.) Methane (CH4) reacts with Cl2 to produce methyl chloride (CH3Cl) and HCl. However
some of the CH3Cl undergoes further chlorination to form CH2Cl2 and HCl. The balanced reactions
are shown below:
CH4+ Cl2 → CH3Cl + HCl
CH3Cl + Cl2 → CH2Cl2 + HCl
A fresh feed consisting of 150 mol/h of methane with 125% excess Cl2 is joined by a recycle
stream and the mixture is fed to a reactor where it reacts to produce CH3Cl, CH2Cl2 and HCl. The
products from the reactor are sent to a separator where 75% of the unreacted CH4 and Cl2 are
recycled, while the remaining CH4, Cl2 and the products are sent to another part of the plant to be
processed. If the overall conversion is 85% and the selectivity is 3, find:
a) (25 points) the molar flow rates of HCl, CH3Cl and CH2Cl2
b) (10 pts) the single-pass conversion of CH4
