Chemical Engineering

Chemical Engineering is the branch of engineering that deals with the technology of large-scale chemical production and the manufacture of products through chemical processes. Today, the field of chemical engineering is a diverse one, covering areas from biotechnology and nanotechnology to mineral processing.

Why the height kept of steam ejector 10.33 m?

So that it can maintain a vacuum on the condenser; and the U-drains, which drain back to the condenser, don't get sucked dry by the ejector set. The length of each leg of U-drain is specifically designed to maintain a certain vacuum at each position. The U-drains drain the condensate from the inter and after condensers and the gland seal condenser back to the main condenser. Water under a perfect vacuum will stand in a column 34 feet high (10.33 meters), which means a vacuum of 30 inches of mercury (762 mm) would draw everything out of a column that is not at least that high.

It's to maintain the water seal on the U-drains to prevent air induction into the condenser.

Can you mix two type of transformer oil like shell diala B and nytro 10XN and how or what percentages?

One can mix shell Dial Oil B and nytro 10xn at 2 parts shell Diala and one part nytro 10xn. The advantages would be good pouring flow even at low temperature Both oils are napthenic.

What is loading and flooding point in packed column?

Flooding point is the point where the liquid overflows because of the high gas velocity coming from the bottom. Loading point is velocity at which absorption starts taking place.

WHY DID THE IRON ROD KEPT IN COPPER SULPHATE SOLUTION TURNED BROWN AFTER SOMETIME?

The Iron rod(Fe) reacts with the Copper Sulphate. Substitution reaction takes place.

Fe+CuSO4--> FeSO4 + Cu

What is a Process Flow Diagram?

A Process Flow Diagram (or System Flow Diagram) shows the relationships between the major components in the system. It also has basic information concerning the material balance for the process. See the related link.

Difference between high temperature carbonization and low temperature carbonization?

Low temperature carbonization : It is done at a temperature off about 500-700 C. It produces semi coke due to incomplete carbonization of coal. The coke oven gases produced have a lower calorific value. The tar produced is aliphatic in nature. The coke produced is more reactive, weaker in strength and large in size.

High Temperature Carbonization : Done at a temperature range of 900-1100 C. It produces metallurgical coke. The coke gases have a higher calorific value. The tar produced contains more of the aromatics and the coke obtained is denser and less reactive

What did trade fairs do?

Trade fairs were used to market and increase awareness of new technology. In the days before mass media, it was difficult for people to know what advances were being made.

What are the main objectives of Pigging operation for Oil and Gas pipeline?

The main objevtive of pipeline pigging is cleaning, removing of waxes, breaking of hydraate formation and pipeline inspection

What is methanol that produce from crude?

Methanol produced from crude oil is a synthetic alcohol created through the conversion of hydrocarbons found in crude oil. This process typically involves steam reforming or gasification, where the crude is transformed into syngas (a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide), which is then catalytically converted into methanol. Methanol serves as a key feedstock for various chemicals, fuels, and is also used in the production of formaldehyde and acetic acid. Its production from crude oil offers an alternative route to traditional natural gas sources, especially in regions with limited gas availability.

What are the steps that take place in the preparation of Ethyltriphenylphosphonium Chloride?

Steps includes esterifying Tenofovir with chloromethyl, isopropyl carbonate with a base. 2. Optionally purifying Tenofovir disoproxil. 3 converting Tenofovir disoproxil into pharmaceutical acceptable salts.

What is an ammonia plant?

a ammonia plant makes ammonia by using a special process called the Haber Bosch process they are infamous by their smell, they make fertilizers and sometimes dyes and nylon

Why is it important to use BPA free containers?

When ingested it is believed that Bisphenol A (BPA) is an endocrine disruptor in humans; however, the FDA maintains that BPA containers are safe.

Bisphenol A is used to make polycarbonate containers, and BPA may leech into food/water stored in the container. BPA may leech from containers when they are heated as in baby bottles in a microwave. See also related links.

Which is better choice architecture or chemical engineering?

The fields are completely different. Chemical engineering is taking raw materials and processing them into finished products using the most cost effective inputs. Architecture is essentially making buildings and structures look appealing. The job market for chemical engineers is very strong (at least in the U.S.) because the baby boomers are retiring. The job market for architects is more cyclical and depends on housing demand. See also the article from CNNMoney linked below.

What is the effect of temperature on conversion value in cstr?

Temperature affects the conversion value in a CSTR in two ways:

1) it should increase the rate of conversion

2) it should shift the equilibrium of the reaction

note that in shifting the equilibrium, it shifts the equilibrium of ALL reactions including side reactions which can be suppressed or promoted

If the reaction is nearing equilibrium prior to exiting the reactor, the second effect can be very significant.

Increasing the rate of conversion could allow faster throughput in the reactor with the same conversion - unless the effect on equilibrium shift is significant

What are the concerns in Hydro-Chloric gas absorption in water?

who cares what's in the water just drink it

na nagmamalasakit kung ano ang sa tubig lamang inumin ang mga ito

wat omgee wat in die water drink dit net

i cili kujdeset se çfarë është në ujë vetëm pinë

لذي يهتم بما في ذلك مياه الشرب فقط

որը հոգ է տանում, թե ինչ է այդ ջուրը խմել միայն այն

su ne qayğıları olan yalnız içki

zaintzen ura besterik edan

каго гэта хвалюе, што знаходзіцца ў вадзе толькі піць

যারা সদয় জলে কি এটা পান

на кого му пука, това, което е във водата просто го пият

a qui li importa el que està en l'aigua només es beu

who cares, was im Wasser nur trinken

ok thats all im doing, if u dont speak enrish search it up on google translator

What is graduate chemical engineer?

An engineer with studies (3-5 years, depending on the country) in chemical engineering, graduate from a technical university.

What does mean tactoids in nano composite materials?

an elongated particle (as in a sickle cell, myosin, or fibrin) that appears as a spindle-shaped body under a polarizing microscope

Is it wise to store chemicals on a shelf in alphabetical order?

There are advantages and disadvantages to storing in alphabetical order. Generally you want to segregate chemicals according to type rather than name. Acids and bases usually should not be stored together. Oxidizers and combustibles should not be stored together. You get the idea; in general - don't store chemicals together with other chemicals that they will react with violently. If you store strictly alphabetically you could wind up with acetic acid being stored with ammonia - which I do not think you would want to do.

Once the chemicals are segregated according to incompatibility, it might be good to organize by alphabetical order so that someone looking for a particular chemical can find it more easily.

Why use LMTD and not mean temperature difference?

Because the temperature change that occurs across the heat exchanger from the entrance to the exit is not linear, and a logarithmic function best describes this temperature change.
