Additional Homework Problems

  1. CDP11-AA An isomerization reaction that follows Langmuir-Hinshelwood kinetics is carried out on a monolith catalyst. [2nd Ed. P10-11]
  2. CDP11-BB A parameter sensitivity analysis is required for this problem in which an isomerization is carried out over a 20-mesh gauze screen. [2nd Ed. P10-12]
  3. CDP11-CC This problem examines the effect on temperature in a catalyst monolith. [2nd Ed. P10-13]
  4. CDP11-DB A second-order catalytic reaction is carried out in a catalyst monolith. [2nd Ed. P10-14]
  5. CDP11-EC Fracture acidizing is a technique to increase the productivity of oil wells. Here acid is injected at high pressures to fracture the rock and form a channel that extends out from the well bore. As the acid flows through the channel, it etches the sides of the channel to make it larger, and thus less resistant to the flow of oil. Derive equations for the concentration profile of acid and the channel width, each as a function of distance from the well bore. [2nd Ed. P10-15]
  6. CDP11-FC The solid-gas reaction of silicon to form SiO2 is an important process in microelectronics fabrication. The oxidation occurs at the Si-SiO2 interface. Derive an equation for the thickness of the SiO2 layer as a function of time. [2nd Ed. P10-17]
  7. CDP11-GB Mass transfer limitations in CVD processing to product material with ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties. [2nd Ed. P10-6]
  8. CDP11-HB Calculate multicomponent properties. [2nd Ed. P10-9]
  9. CDP11-IB Application of the shrinking core model to FeS2 rock samples in acid mine drainage. [2nd Ed. P10-18]
  10. CDP11-JB Removal of chlorine by adsorption from a packed bed reactor. Vary system parameters to predict their effect on the conversion. [3rd Ed. P11-5B]
  11. CDP11-KB The reversible reaction A B is carried out in a PBR. [3rd Ed. P11-6B]
  12. CDP11-LB Oxidation of ammonia over wire screens. [3rd Ed. P11-7B]
  13. CDP11-MB Sgt. Ambercromby on the scene again to investigate foul play. [3rd Ed. P11-13B]
