Amonia is oxidized with air to form nitric oxide in

the first step of the production of nitric acid. Two
principal reactions occur

1. 4NH3 + 5O2 4NO + 6H2O

2. 2NH3 + O2 N2 + 3H2O
A flow chart of the reactors follows :
900 mol air/min
0.21 O2
0.79 N2
150C, 8 bar

100 mol NH3 (g)/min Product gas : 700C, 8 bar

Reactor
25C, 8 bar 90 mol NO/min
150 mol H2O (v)/min
716 mol N2/min
690 mol O2/min
Q (kJ/min)
Question

a. Taking elemental species [N2(g), H2(g), O2(g)] at 25C as

references , prepare and fill in an inlet-outlet enthalpy table

b. Calculate the required rate of heat transfer to or from the

reactor in kW.

c. What would have been different in your calculations and

results in parts (a) and (b) if you had taken molecular species
as references in part (a)?
