INDUSTRIAL ORGANIC CHEMISTRY – EXERCISE 0 Adiabatic temperature The gas stream coming from the reformer unit is fed to a reactor where the CO is converted to CO 2 and H2 by means of the water gas shift (WGS) reaction: CO + H2O ↔ CO2 + H2 The gas stream is at 360 °C and 30 bar. The pressure drops across the reactor are negligible and the reactor is adiabatic. By considering that a conversion of CO equal to 70% is achieved, evaluate the temperature and the composition of the stream leaving the reactor.
