4.0 QUESTIONS AND DISCUSSION

4.1 what are the mole fraction for each component at the effluent of the reactor?

Hydrogen chloride = 0.11972

Ethylene = 0.08451 Nitrogen = 0.03521 Ethylene chloride = 0.76056

4.2 What is the flow rate of the recycle stream?

The flow rate of recycle stream is 3.60 kgmole/h

4.3 What is the flow rate of the final product after recycling.

The flow rate of the final product after recycling is 100 kgmole/h

This experiment is about the production ethyl chloride by the gas-phase reaction of HCl with

ethylene over a copper chloride catalyst on silica. The main objectives of this experiment are to

install and converge a conversion reactor, to simulate a process involving reaction and separation

and to use Recycle operation in iCON. In this process, 50 mol% of HCl, 48 mol% of C 2H4 and 2

mol% of N2 were fed at 100 kmol/hr and 1 atm. Peng-Robinson equation of state was chosen as

the fluid package and no pressure drop was assumed in all equipment.

Then, the entire component is fed to a conversion reactor where 90% conversion was achieved.

Initially, the mole fraction for each component at the effluent of the catalytic reactor is 0.08451

of ethylene, 0.11972 of HCl, 0.76056 of ethyl chloride and 0.03521 of nitrogen.

RECOMMENDATION

In order to run the HYSYS software, students should follow the below:

Students should be fully understand the concept of the equipment used in HYSYS

Students should read properly and understand the manual laboratory before run the

HYSYS Software to solve the problem

Students should now familiar know using the HYSIS software

While inserting the value in the spreadsheet make sure that the value is correct so justified

answer can be obtained
