Toluene + H2 → Benzene + CH4 Two streams enter the process. The first input stream is pure liquid toluene, which enters at a rate of 40 mol/s. The second input stream is a mixture of H2 (95 mole%) and CH4 (5 mole%). The flow rate of H2 in the second stream is equal to 200 mol/s. Two streams leave the process. The first output stream contains only liquid benzene (product) and toluene (unconverted reactant). The second output stream contains gaseous H2 and CH4. If the conversion of toluene in the process is 77.9 %, what is the mass fraction of benzene in the liquid output stream? Hint: Like many situations in life, this problem may provide more information than you need to answer the given question. Suggest to follow the below steps
1.Calculate the rate of consumption of toluene.
2.Calculate the left over of toluene in the liquid stream, then convert this amount from mole to mass.
3.Calculate the rate of benzene formation then convert this amount from mole to mass.
4.Now you can calculate the mass fraction of benzene in the liquid output stream

Problem 4.40 Sequential Distillation A liquid mixture containing 30.0 mole% benzene (B), 25.0% toluene (T), and the balance xylene (X) is fed to a distillation column. The bottoms product contains 98.0 mole% X and no B, and 85.5% of the X in the feed is recovered in this stream. The overhead product is fed to a second column. The overhead product from the second column contains 91.0% of the B in the feed to this column. The composition of this...

A synthesis gas stream consisting of 65.30% H2, 34.30% CO, and 0.400% CH4 (by mole) is fed into the process described below at a rate of 100 mol/hour. The effluent stream from the reactor is fed into a separator where the methanol is completely removed, and the unconverted reactants are recycled to the reactor. To avoid the buildup of methane, a portion of the recycled stream is purged. At present operating conditions, the CO conversion over the entire process is...
