    1. One way to obtain Acrylonitrile (monomer for the production of Nitron fiber) is
    the oxidative ammonium propylene. On oxidative ammonium received: 1254 kg of
    propylene; 2360 kg of oxygen; 516 kg of ammonia and water vapor. It was obtained
    1000 kg of Acrylonitrile, as well as a number of by-products: acrolein, hydrocyanic
    acid, acetonitrile, methane and carbon dioxide. At the same time, part of propylene
    and oxygen were not reacted — respectively 161 kg and 903 kg.Calculate the yield
    of Acrylonitrile from the theoretically possible, the conversion of propylene and
    oxygen. Write the equation of the target reaction and reactions of formation of by-
    products.
    The equation of the target reaction (formation of acrylic acid nitrile):
    CH2=CH-CH3 + 1, 5O2 + NH3 → CH2=CH–C≡N + 3H2O (1)

    The chemical equation for the formation of acrolein:

    O
    CH2=CH–CH3 + O2 → CH2=CH–C + H2O (2)
    H

    The equation of the reaction of formation of hydrocyanic acid and acetonitrile:


    CH2=CH-CH3 + 2O2 + 2NH3 → HCN + CH3–C≡N + 4H2O (3)

    The chemical equation for the formation of methane and acetonitrile:


    CH2=CH–CH3 + 0,5O2 + NH3 → CH4 + CH3–C≡N + H2O (4)

    The chemical equation for the formation of carbon dioxide:


    CH2=CH-CH3 + 4, 5O2 → 3CO2 + 3H2O (5)

    Reaction joined 1254 – 161=1093 kg of propylene, and therefore, the stoichiometric


    yield of Acrylonitrile (reaction equation 1) is:
    The Gстех. = (53/42) · 1093 = 1379 kg,
    53 and 42 – molar masses of Acrylonitrile and propylene, kg/KMOL, respectively.
    The yield of Acrylonitrile from the theoretically possible is:
    B = 100 · 1000/1379= 72.5 %.

    Propylene conversion:
    Cprop. = 100 (1254 – 161)/1254 = 87,2 %.

    The conversion of oxygen:


    Acid. = 100 (2360 – 903)/2360 = 61,7 %.

    2. The capacity of the tubular ethylene polymerization reactor at 170 MPa is 6,000
    kg of polyethylene per hour. The reactor has a diameter of 0.06 m and a length of
    1000 m. Determine the volumetric feed rate of ethylene (at the stated pressure and
    gas temperature 190 ° C), if the ethylene conversion is 12.5%.

    Ethylene mass flow rate required for the production of 6000 kg/h of polyethylene:
    Death. = 6000/0, 125 = 48 000 kg / h,
    0.125-conversion of ethylene in fractions.

    The volumetric flow rate of ethylene at a pressure of 170 MPa and a temperature of
    190 °C:
    Vet. = (48 000 ∙ 22,4 ∙ 463 ∙ 0,101 ∙ 2,5)/(28 ∙ 273 ∙ 170) = 96,7 m3 / h,
    22.4-molar volume of gas under normal conditions, m3 / KMOL;
    463 = 190 + 273-ethylene temperature, °C;
    0,101 and 273-pressure (MPa) and temperature (°C) corresponding to normal
    conditions;
    2.5 - ethylene compressibility factor at 170 MPa and 190 °C;
    28-molar mass of ethylene, kg / KMOL.
    The compressibility factor found in figure 7 (p. 21, [1]), when values of the given
    parameters, equal to 33.2 per cent (given the pressure) and 1.64 (given temperature).
    Reduced pressure: RPR. et. = 170/5, 12 = 33,20,
    led temperature: TPR. et. = 463/282, 7 = 1.64.
    5.12-ethylene critical pressure, MPa [2, Annex 15];
    282.7-critical ethylene temperature, °C [2, Annex 15].

    Reactor volume:
    VR. = 3,14(0,06/2)2 ∙ 1000 = 2,83 m3,
    0.06-the inner diameter of the tubular reactor, m.

    Volumetric feed rate of ethylene:


    w = 96.7 / 2.83 = 34.2 h -1.
