Provide the following including all steps and assumptions where information is required:

1. Design basis

2. Block flow diagram

3. PFD(Mixer-Gibbs reactor-Separation tower-Distillation tower

4. Mass balance incl extent of reaction method

5. Simulation on COCO to demonstrate that 50000metric tons can be produced.

Design a chemical plant to produce 50000 metric tons per annum of acrylic acid from propylene (assumed pure propylene), air (a source of oxygen), and steam. The compressed air contains water vapor at an amount that would saturate the air at 25C and 1atm. The components are mixed and fed to the reactor at 4.3atm. The mole fractions of the feed are: 0.05 propylene, 0.55 air and 0.4 steam. The reactions occurring withing the reactor are as follows: C3H6+1.5O2C3H4O2+H2O Propylene acrylic acid C3H6+4.5O23CO2+3H2O Propylene Equation (1) is the desired acrylic acid productipn reaction and equation (2) is the undesired propylene combustion reaction.
