MATERIAL BALANCE

4.1 Preliminary Calculations: Basis: = 60 metric tons /day of 99.5% pure Maleic Anhydride = Oxidation yield is 92 %wt based on benzene fed = Selectivity of Maleic Anhydride is73 %wt = Recovery and purification yield is 98 %wt = 1 hr operation 60 tons of 99.5% purity Day

99.5 tons of pure MAN

= 2487.5 kg of Maleic Anhydride / hr Overall loses = 2% (Assuming 1% loss in scrubber and 1% loss in distillation column + producing Fumaric Acid) MAN to be produced = 2487.5 + (2487.5 x .02) = 2536.7 kg MAN / hr Conversion in the reactor is 73 %wt Consider the main reaction

Material Balance

CHAPTER NO. 4

For 2536.7 kg/hr of MAN benzene required = (78 x 2536.7) / 98

= 2019 kg of benzene/hr

As 73 %wt benzene converts to produce MAN, Benzene actually required = 2019 / 0.73

= 2768.8 kg of benzene / hr

For given process Benzene : Air = 1: 24

By wt

Air required for oxidation = 2768.8 x 24 = 66445.5 kg of Air / hr = 2295.4 kgmol of Air / hr As Air has normally 21 %mole Oxygen and 79 %mole Nitrogen Oxygen in Air = 2295.4 x 0.21 = 482 kgmole of Oxygen / hr Nitrogen in Air = 2295.4 x 0.79 = 1813.2 kgmole of Nitrogen / hr Assuming 65 % Air humidity at 30 oC From Humidity chart = 17.5 gm moisture / kg dry air Moisture in Air = (17.5 x 66379.3) / 1000 = 1162.78 kg of water / hr
