Again consider the modified system configuration described in the previous problem and estimate the effects of temperature
Question:
Again consider the modified system configuration described in the previous problem and estimate the effects of temperature and pressure on conversion. Do this by calculating CO and Hconversions and methanol production for the following conditions:
Describe qualitatively the effects of pressure and temperature on conversion, and suggest reasons for using the intermediate values of the process description.
