Design a reactor for an ammonia plant capable of producing $100$ tons$/$day of liquid ammonia delivered at $-28\backslash$deg F$.$ The feed gas from the methanator is delivered to the reactor at $100\backslash$deg F and $335$ psig, with the following composition.

Component Mole $\%$

H$274\mathrm{.}03$

N$224\mathrm{.}68$

CH$40\mathrm{.}95$

Ar Balance

Perform groups of four people and let your TA know as soon as possible.

$1-(20\%)$ Perform a thermodynamic analysis to examine equilibrium conversion with respect to pressure and temperature under industrially relevant conditions

a$.$ Assume that the system is ideal

b$.$ Take the nonidealities into account. Justify the selection of equation of state.

$2-(20\%)$ Find a catalyst with corresponding rate expression for ammonia synthesis. Justify the selection of the catalyst. $($Due Date: May $22,2024)$

$3-(60\%)$ Design a reactor. Determine the volume, area, and length of the reactor. Plot the changes of temperature, conversion, flow rates, and pressure along the reactor. The target conversion for a single pass reactor is $98\%$ of the equilibrium conversion.

Report Requirements: The report should contain the following sections.

$-$ Table of contents, $-$ Abstract, $-$ Sample calculations, $-$ Results $($w process flow diagram if you have any$),-$ Nomenclature, $-$ References, $-$ Appendix $($will contain the computer program and the output$)$Design a reactor for an ammonia plant capable of producing $100$ tons$/$day of liquid ammonia delivered at $-28\backslash$deg F$.$ The feed gas from the methanator is delivered to the reactor at $100\backslash$deg F and $335$ psig, with the following composition.

we use Magnetic Iron Oxide as a catalyst $,$we need to figure out how to design other parameters of reactor such as reactor length tube number etc and how to factor them in for the matlab side
