Answer:
Follows are the solution to this question:
Explanation:
Methane inlet humidity content of [tex]=7.00\%[/tex]
Methane moisture outlet content [tex]=0.05\%[/tex]
Zeolite absorption humidity [tex]= 6.95\%[/tex]
Dry zeolite 1 kg will accommodate water[tex]= 0.1000 \ kg[/tex]
One kilogram of Dry Zeolite will carry water from [tex]=0.1000\ kg[/tex]
The water can contain 1000 kg of zeolite [tex]= 100 \ kg[/tex]
Methane which would be made [tex]=\frac{100}{6.95\%}= 1,439 \ kg[/tex]
That's why it will be producing 1439 kg of methane.
The amount of methane that can be produced before the regeneration of zeolite is 1,439 kg.
What is zeolite?
Zeolite belongs from the family of hydrated aluminosilicate minerals, in which alkali and alkaline earth metals are present.
In the question, it is given that:
Capacity of 1kg of zeolite to hold water = 0.100kg
Capacity of 1000kg of zeolite to hold water = 100kg
Inlet moisture content of the methane = 7.00 % (by mass)
Outlet moisture content of the methane = 0.05% (by mass)
Capacity of zeolite to absorb methane content = 6.95 %
Amount of methane before the regeneration of zeolite = 100kg / 6.95% = 14.39% of kg = 1,439 kg
Hence, 1,439 kg methane will be produced before the zeolite must be regenerated.
