1. Design a benchtop laboratory-scale facility to produce methanol from the reaction CO +2(H2) → CH(OH): Determine all flow rates, heat transfers, reaction vessel optimum temperature and pressure, reaction vessel material, and geometry.
2. Develop a spreadsheet to compute the LHV of gaseous octane and use it to find the adiabatic flame temperature for (a) 100.% and (b) 200.% theoretical air.
