Table 2.6 shows the effect of pulping conditions on black liquor viscosity. The viscosity may vary significantly from mill to mill. Viscosity increases with increased dry solids content. An increase in temperature lowers the viscosity. The practical limit for handling the liquor is the pumping limit of 300-500 cp. The viscosity must always be below this level, and is usually much lower in the evaporation plant. If the liquor at final concentration is stored at atmospheric pressure, the limit of the final concentration is 70%-75% dry solids at the maximum temperature of 115°C. If the final product liquor is stored in a pressurized storage tank, the final con¬centration can be 75% - 85% dry solids and even higher at a storage temperature of 125°C-150°C. These extremely high concentrations might require using medium pres¬sure steam in the evaporation plant. A heat treatment process can also reduce the viscosity. Certain flow additives are available (Llamas, 2007; Gagnon et al., 1996) which reduce the viscosity of the liquor in such a way that high solids firing is possible in the conventional recovery furnace. High solids firing is environmentally attractive as it reduces hydrogen sulphide and sulphur dioxide emissions as well …show more content…
Any increase in dry solids will decrease specific heat capacity and an increase in temperature will decrease it. The specific heat capacity represents the heat necessary to raise the temperature of 1 kg of a material by 1 °C. Enthalpy data for black liquor are essential for estimating energy balances of kraft recovery boilers. The heat capacity of the black liquor decreases along with the increase in dry solids content. It can be approximated by a linear addition of the specific enthalpy contributions of water and black liquor solids. Moreover, an excess heat capacity function is incorporated to account for changes in black liquor heat
Thermodynamics is essentially how heat energy transfers from one substance to another. In “Joe Science vs. the Water Heater,” the temperature of water in a water heater must be found without measuring the water directly from the water heater. This problem was translated to the lab by providing heated water, fish bowl thermometers, styrofoam cups, and all other instruments found in the lab. The thermometer only reaches 45 degrees celsius; therefore, thermodynamic equations need to be applied in order to find the original temperature of the hot water. We also had access to deionized water that was approximately room temperature.
The purpose of this lab was to calculate the specific heat of a metal cylinder
In the span of only a few pages, L.B. Church has given us an overview of the winemaking process. He has done so with sufficient detail for those in the chemistry community to follow along, yet still in a cursory enough manner as to not bog them down with the unnecessary. Written as if it were the procedure of an experiment, he has given enough information for the experiment to be repeated, tested, validated and improved upon. And that is almost assuredly his goal from the very beginning, as it must be for any published author in the chemistry community.
To investigate the relationship between three different alkanols in terms of their carbon chain length, rate of increased temperature, and heat of combustion, in order to determine which is the most efficient at heating water to a certain temperature whilst reducing time and effects on the environment.
The Brewing Process Beer is an industrial product. A brewery is literally a beer factory in which the brewer takes advantage of and manipulates natural processes to create the perfect growth medium for yeast. On the surface the brewing process is simple. But it you look a little deeper you find that there is a complex set of chemical reactions at work in the creation of beer.
You have been asked to design an oral liquid formulation of ibuprofen for paediatric use.
If the pot is close to the heat source, more heat is directed to the water so it will be heated faster. Alcohols: Different alcohols have different bond structures, some bonds need more energy to break them than others, and some release more energy when they are broken. Temperature increase: I could change the amount the temperature has to rise before I record my results. This will only affect the amount of fuel used, so hasn’t got much relevance to the experiment. If I did a calculation from the results I have for the temperature rising to 10 c then I would be able to work out how much fuel would be used, if I heated the water to 50 c. X 10 x 50" By dividing the amount of fuel used by the temperature raised you will be given the amount of fuel used per c. If you multiply the amount of fuel used per c, by the amount you want to find results for, you will be given an exact amount for how much fuel would be used if you heated the water to that specific temperature.
The actual amount of crude product was determined to be 3.11 grams. The percent yield of the crude product was determined to be 67.75 %. The actual amount of pure product formed was found to be 4.38 grams. The percent yield of the pure product was determined to be 95.42%. Regarding the thin layer chromatography, the line from the solvent front is 8 centimeters.
Specific heat capacity of aqueous solution (taken as water = 4.18 J.g-1.K-1). T = Temperature change (oK). We can thus determine the enthalpy changes of reaction 1 and reaction 2 using the mean (14) of the data obtained. Reaction 1: H = 50 x 4.18 x -2.12.
The objective of this experiment was to identify a metal based on its specific heat using calorimetry. The unknown metals specific heat was measured in two different settings, room temperature water and cold water. Using two different temperatures of water would prove that the specific heat remained constant. The heated metal was placed into the two different water temperatures during two separate trials, and then the measurements were recorded. Through the measurements taken and plugged into the equation, two specific heats were found. Taking the two specific heats and averaging them, it was then that

This software enables you to simulate experiments. This means that I am able to quickly carry out experiments to help in planning for my investigation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Alcohol Temperature Increase (oC) Mass of burner before exp.

This is expressed as Δ +ve (delta positive). If the total energy put in is less than the energy created, then the substance warms up (it is exothermic). This is expressed as Δ -ve (delta negative). I will investigate eight different alcohols using an alcohol or spirit burner, to measure the energy change during burning by measuring the change in temperature of some water held in a container.
It goes through a series of heating and cooling to produce the alcohol once it is complete, it then ships to the fuel pumps, and eventually into the world’s vehicles. Then...
It is very useful especially when comparing different fuels and substances to see which ones release more energy when they are burned. This can be helpful in knowing, especially with all of the new vehicles and machinery being built, maybe they will find a better fuel through this method. When the fuel is burned, the temperature change is measured. They then simply take the amount of fuel that was burned and compare it to the change in temperature to calculate the enthalpy change for the reaction.6. Also, many fuels produce a higher heat then others, so obviously the higher heat producing fuel yields more products. More products means a better product for the dollar which is better economically for everyone.
