1. Thousand kilograms of soya beans are composed of 18% oil, 35% protein, 10.0%
moisture, and the balance are carbohydrates, fiber, and ash. The feed is crushed and
pressed, which reduces oil content in beans to 6%, and then extracted with hexane to
produce a meal containing 0.5% oil, and finally dried to 8% moisture. Assuming that
there is no loss of protein and water with the oil, determine the water loss during drying.
2. The feed to a separation process contains 50 wt% benzene, 30 wt% toluene, and 20 wt%
xylene. The feed enters the process at a flow rate of 100 kg/h. The overhead stream from
the first unit contains 95 wt% benzene, 3 wt% toluene, and 2 wt% xylene. The overhead
stream from the second unit contains 3 wt% benzene, 95 wt% toluene, and 2 wt% xylene.
The flow rate of the overhead from the first unit is 52% of the fresh feed flow rate. The
amount of benzene in the overhead from the second unit is 75% of the benzene that
enters the second unit. Determine the flow rates for all of the streams leaving both units.
3. Fresh apple juice contains 75% water flowing at a mass flow rate of 200 kg/h. The fresh
juice is concentrated in an evaporation process. A portion of the fresh feed is bypassed to
meet the evaporator maximum capacity. The bypass stream joins the evaporator outlet
stream. Ninety percent of the water entering the evaporator is evaporated. The
concentrated apple juice contains 25% water. Draw the process flow sheet and calculate
the mass flow rates of produced and evaporated streams.
4. The feed stream to a processing system consists of 40 wt% A, 25 wt% B, and 35 wt% C.
This stream enters the first process unit from which two streams emerge. The overhead
stream from unit one contains 60 wt% A and no C. The bottom stream from unit one
(stream 3) goes to a second unit. Two streams emerge from unit 2. The top stream
contains 20 wt% B and no C. The bottom stream from unit 2 contains 30 wt% A, 20 wt%
B, and 50 wt% C, and leaves unit 2 at a rate of 140 kg/h. Draw a flow chart for this
system. Determine the flow rates for streams 1 through 4.
5. A solid ore containing 82 wt% FeS2 and 18 wt% inert is fed to a furnace. Dry air is fed in
40% excess of the amount theoretically required to oxidize all of the sulfur in the ore to
SO3. A pyrite conversion of 85% is obtained, with 40% of FeS2 converted to form sulfur
dioxide and the rest forming sulfur trioxide. Two streams leave the roaster: a gas stream
containing SO3, SO2, O2, and N2, and a solid stream containing unconverted pyrite, ferric
oxide (Fe2O3), and inert. Using 100 kg/min of oreas a basis, calculate the rate of Fe2O3
production (kg/min) in the outlet solid stream, and the total molar flw and composition of
the outlet gas stream. The following reactions take place in the furnace:

6. 100 kmol/h of a stream containing 20 mol% CO, 20 mol% H2O, and 60 mol% H2 is
combined with additional steam and fed to a water–gas shift reactor to produce more
hydrogen according to the reaction:

The equilibrium constant of the water–gas shift reaction is 200, and the mole fraction of
hydrogen at the outlet is 0.75. Write and balance the chemical equation. How much
additional steam is fed to the water– gas shift reactor?
