Question

Engineers Mella and George operate a biomass gasification reactor. The composition of the biomass is unknown (

C_(x)HYO_(Z)

). The feed to the reactor contains biomass and

13.8mol%

water and a total flow rate of

7.93mo(l)/(s)

. The reaction stoichiometry is unknown, and a gas product stream is produced. The product stream exits at

26.1mo(l)/(s)

and contains mole fractions of 0.536 for

CO_(2),0.142

for acetic acid

(CH_(3)(C)/(O)O H)

, and the balance water. The feed enters at

146\deg C

and the products exit at

597\deg C

. Assume all components are in the gas phase and no phase changes occur in the reactor: Find the composition

(x,Y,Z)

of the biomass.

x=

Y=

Z=
