Question
1. In a combustion process of a coal-fired power plant, 20% excess of the theoretical
amount of Oxygen is needed to burn 200 kmol of solid Carbon fuel.
a. How much Carbon Dioxide in kilograms will be produced? --
b. What is the actual amount of Oxygen in kilograms?
This process should release enough thermal energy to boil water and turn it into steam
to run the turbines to generate electricity.
c. How much heat is needed to turn 1000 kmol of water (at 25 °C) to steam?
