Converting methane and water into methanol

Reference no: EM13691559

Problem- 13.1 the objective can be described most simply as converting methane and water into methanol and hydrogen, and then purifying the Methanol so that it meets specifications. The overall process stoichiometry is given by the following relationship: CH4 + H2O CH3OH + H2From this statement, estimate the feed rates of the natural gas (Kmol/h,SCMH) and steam (Kmol/h, Kg/h) fed as reactants (as opposed to fuel)to the reformer .(Note: the requested estimate neglects formation of by-products and the carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide lost in the purge stream.)
