You are running an experimental fixed-bed adsorption column that enables you to sample the liquid along the length of the bed. These samples then may be analyzed for solute concentration. Based on your analysis, you determine that 60% of the bed comes to equilibrium with the feed solute concentration at breakthrough.
Required:
a. What is the corresponding bed efficiency (fraction of bed utilized)?
b. If the bed performance described above was achieved under conditions where the adsorption isotherm is roughly linear with K = 100, can q be improved to 0.95 by changing K if all else is held constant? Explain.
c. How does the slope of the breakthrough curve change with K? Discuss this issue
with regard to fixed bed adsorption column operation and performance.

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
