Please help with the following question:
Question Ethanol is the main component in beer, and it can be brewed in different ways. One of which is the use of a distillation column, as described and shown by the following accompanying description and diagram. Process description The main feed streams are those of ethene and water (streams 1 and 2 , respectively). They enter the process into a mixer where they are thoroughly mixed and after which they head to a reactor (stream 3) where two reactions occur: the main reaction being that of ethene and water to produce the main product ethanol. The second being a side reaction whereby the produced ethanol reacts with some of the unreacted water to produce the oxoammonium ion and the ethanol cation (the equation is that of an equilibrium reaction but for the purpose of the question, we take it to be a forward reaction). The reactor product (stream 4) passes through a separator where ethene and the oxoammonium ion only are taken out (stream 5) but some still remain in the process. The separator product (stream 6 ) is fed into a distillation column where some of the ethanol, the rest of ethene remaining and water only are part of the top product (stream 7) and some of the component's part of the bottom product. The bottom product (stream 8) comprises unwanted components (i.e., the oxoammonium ion and the ethanol cation) and they are taken out of the process completely by the use of a separator, but the separation is not perfect, so the stream (stream 10) contains other components as well. To improve the conversion of the reactants to the products, water and ethane only are recycled (stream 9). The two reactions occurring in the reactor are: Rl:C2H4+H2OCH3CH2OH Et W E E W 0 1 The following process flow diagram expresses the process diagrammatically. The following table shows the flowrates and compositions of the streams associated with the process described above: The table shows the flow rates (kmol/hr) of components in each stream Furthermore: n10w10r=1.36 X3w=0.442 composition of water (w) in stream 3 X10,0=0.229 composition of oxoammonium in stream 10 With the above given information, determine the flow rate and composition of stream 9. All calculations should be in one decimal place
