5. ENERGY BALANCE Basis:- 1 Hr. Operation ENERGY BALANCES ACROSS THE FEED PREHEATING EQUIPMENT:The heating of cold 2-butanol feed is to be completed in three stages in order to avoid large heat losses. The cold feed is first preheated to its boiling point using steam as heating medium and then vaporized in a thermosyphon reboiler utilizing the heat contained in the reaction products. The vapor‚ which has entrained liquid is removed from the knock out drum‚ and then heated to reaction temperature

The purpose of this experiment was to synthesize isopentyl acetate via an esterification reaction between acetic acid and isopentyl alcohol‚ using concentrated sulfuric acid as a catalyst. The product was washed with sodium hydrogen carbonate‚ as well as with water‚ then dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate. The product was then distilled using a Hickman still and characterized using infrared spectroscopy. The percent yield of isopentyl acetate was 61.52%. This may have been low due to not all of the

Great Lakes is currently the largest U.S. methyl bromide supplier in the U.S. producing more than 40 million pounds annually at their plants. Great Lakes Chemical ’s involvement in the bromine business has its roots in leaded gasoline. When tetraethyl lead (TEL) was invented as a gasoline additive back in the 1920s‚ it was found to leave a corrosive byproduct in the engine. Great Lakes developed international markets for its products. Globalization of leaded gasoline makes TEL responsible for nearly

Born on May 18‚ 1889‚ American engineer and chemist Thomas Midgley‚ Jr. was controversial for two of his discoveries. One‚ he discovered the Freon while working for General Motors in 1930. He intended it to be a safe non-toxic refrigerant to be used in household appliances‚ to replace the dangerous refrigerants used before like ammonia and propane. Freon and other CFCs soon replaced the various toxic or explosive substances previously used as refrigerants‚ and were later used in other applications

The Knoevenagel Condensation Preparation of Ethyl 3-Coumarincarboxlate Ivy Akatsa Organic Chemistry Introduction Knoevenagel Condensation uses a compound of the type X-CH2-Y as the carbanion source‚ where X and Y are the electron withdrawing groups such as –CN‚-COOR‚-COR‚ NO2‚ etc. These groups are capable of stabilizing an adjacent carbanion by resonance. So in this experiment‚ the Knoevenagel Condensation of diethyl malonate with aromatic aldehyde salicylaldehyde involves an initial
