SO2 concentration in the flue gas of a coal burning power station is 1,300 ppm. The molar flow rate of this flue gas is 695 kmoles/min. The flue gas temperature is 350 K. Limestone is used to scrub the flue gas to achieve 93% SO2 removal. The limestone is 90% CaCO3 and 10% inert. Assume that SO 2 is removed in the form of gypsum (CaSO4.2H2O) The sludge formed (consists of the produced gypsum and inert) can be dewatered to 55% solids. The SO 2 removing reaction is as bellow: 1 SO2 + O2 + CaCO3 + 2H2O = CαSO. 2H2O + CO₂ Calculate the dewatered sludge mass flow rate (ton/day)? Select one: a. 101.86 ton/day O b. 121.86 ton/day O c. 131.86 ton/day O d. 111.86 ton/day Clear my choice

Treatment Q2.2 SO₂ concentration in the flue gas of a coal burning power station is 1,300 ppm. The molar flow rate of this flue gas 695 kmoles/min. The flue gas temperature is 350 K. Limestone is used to scrub the flue gas to achieve 93% SO₂ removal. The limestone is 90% CaCO3 and 10% inert. Assume that SO2 is removed in the form of gypsum (CaSO4.2H₂O). The sludge formed (consists of the produced gypsum and inert) can be dewatered to 55% solids. The SO₂ removing reaction is as bellow: 1 SO₂ +20₂ +CaCO3 + 2H₂O = CaSO4. 2H₂O + CO₂ Calculate the dewatered sludge mass flow rate (ton/day)? Select one: a. 101.86 ton/day b. 121.86 ton/day C. 131.86 ton/day d. 111.86 ton/day Clear my choice
