Errata

CHAPTER 3

• Under Reactor - volume, m should be volume, m³.

CHAPTER 4

• Replace first four words with "For a second."
• The sentence beginning, "100 percent separation of all ethylbenzene…" should read, "100 percent separation and recycle of all ethylbenzene from the reactor exit stream."
• The stated catalyst life of 1100 h is actually the period between regenerations. Assume the catalyst life is 1 year.
• Due to lack of thermodynamic data for several components, heat integration should not be attempted.

• There should be 2 g of metal catalyst per unit, not 0.5 kg.

CHAPTER 6

• Last line should read, "the ratio can be approximated as 1.^‡" (rather than 0.5).

• The 100 m² in the first sentence should be 10 m².

CHAPTER 9

• The coefficient 7.61x10^-5 must be replaced by (0.0145)(0.0254)ⁿ.

• There are corrections in first two columns in table 9-4, indicated by the underlines. The first two columns should read as follows:
  

  By Eq. (9-81)		By Eq. (9-76)
  0.22		0.25
  0.12		0.14
  0.07		0.088
  0.037		0.049

• The first coefficient of the total variable operating costs should be 1.22X10^-3 (i.e. 0.00122), not 9.78X10⁵.

CHAPTER 12

• Add a 2 before SE_j in the denominator.

CHAPTER 13

• Add that the ethanol yield is 0.47 kg ethanol/kg of glucose consumed. The correct unit for the rate coefficient, k, is 1/s, not kg/m^3.s.

• The heat of reaction is 89.98 MJ/kg mol CH₃OH, not kJ/kg mol.
• The symbol p_i represents fugacity, in kPa, of component i, which equals the partial pressure, p_i = Py_i, in kPa, when the fugacity coefficient is 1.

• The third sentence should read, "In the proposed recovery process, each kg of catalyst-containing ceramic is mixed with two kg of aqueous sodium cyanide solution, and the Pt is dissolved by complexing with the cyanide."

CHAPTER 14

• Coefficient should be 0.023, not 0.23.

• Equation should read μ_L  =  μ_W  = 4 × 10^-4Pa•s   NOT 4 × 10^-6Pa• s

• 30°C should be 20°C
• 21°C should be 20°C
• 0.0082 should be 0.082

• 2944 kPa should be 1944 kPa

CHAPTER 15

• Ordinates should be 10^-1, 10^-2, 10^-3, not 1, 10^-1, 10^-2 respectively

• Figure caption should read "Purchased cost of centrifugal basket separation."

• Should read n_F, not n_P.

• Should read absorption, not adsorption.

APPENDIX A

• The quantity of Pa should read "Pressure or stress," not "Pressure of stress."

APPENDIX C

• In first paragraph, should read 5 × 10 ^-11m² / s  NOT 5 × 10^-9m / s.

REFERENCE INDEX

• Reference should read Treybal, not Treyal.
