The original cost for a distillation tower is $24,000 and the useful life of the tower is estimated to be 8 years. The sinking-fund method for determining the rate of depreciation is used (see Example 5), and the effective annual interest rate for the depreciation fund is 6 percent. If the scrap value of the distillation tower is $4000, determine the asset value (i.e., total book value of equipment) at the end of 5 years.
Example 5
Estimation of filtering area required for a plate-and-frame filtration operation. A plate-and-frame filter press is to be used for removing the solid material from a slurry containing 5 lb of dry solids per cubic foot of solid-free liquid. The viscosity of the liquid is 1 centipoise, and the filter must deliver at least 400 ft3 of solid-free filtrate over a continuous operating time of 2 h when the pressure-difference driving force over the filter unit is constant at 25 psi. On the basis of the following data obtained in a small plate-and-frame filter press, estimate the total area of filtering surface required.Experimental data: The following data were obtained in a plate-and-frame filter press with a total filtering area of 8 ft2:
The slurry (with filter aid) was identical to that which is to be used in the large filter. The filtrate obtained was free of solid, and a negligible amount of liquid was retained in the cake.
A plating waste with a flow of 50 L/min contains 274 mg/L of NaCN. Determine the amounts of chlorine as Ca(OCl)2 and NaOH required to: (a) Oxidize the cyanide to cyanide; and (b) Oxidize the cyanide to CO2 and H2O.

An evaporator is used to concentrate 20 wt % NaOH solution entering at 150°F to a 45 wt% NaOH solution exiting at 200°F. What is the pressure in the vapor space of the evaporator
What is the potential difference between the starting point and the top point of the trajectory?
In the direct steelmaking reactor based on the reduction of an oxidizing foaming slag by char (carbon) particles and droplets of iron containing 2% carbon. Estimate the total surface area of char and iron droplets needed to achieve the smelting ..
What is the required flow rate of cooling water to the exchanger between the wasteheat boiler and the absorber and how much heat must be removed by the two heat exchangers cooling the recycled absorber liquid? Why is there a need to remove this heat?
A civil engineer is designing a road. At what angle should he bank the road surface in a curve of radius 70m so that there is no tendency for a vehicle traveling at 90 km/h to slip sideways, either up or down the banking.
Mass of Air Required for Combustion of Fuel. A coal fired boiler uses fuel having the following analysis by mass:
List two reasons why water is seldom used as a solvent in sample preparation for infrared spectroscopy.
Consider a diatomic gas, N2, at 298 K. This gas is compressed reversibly and adiabatically from 15 dm3 to 5.0 dm3. Assume that the heat capacity of this gas is CV=5R/2, and that it behaves ideally. Calculate the final temperature, T2, of the gas.
Determine the longest wavelength (in cm) of X-rays that is still capable of producing diffraction in copper, Cu.
What is the optimum practical shape for an above-ground dwelling to minimize the heat losses through the building fabric? When is (or was) this optimum shape used? Why is this optimum shape seldom used in richer societies?
