If the feed contains 02 argon from the nitrogen separation


In the production of ammonia from hydrogen and nitrogen the conversion, based on either raw material, is limited to 15%. The ammonia produced is condensed from the reactor (converter) product stream and the unreacted material is recycled. If the feed contains 0.2% argon (from the nitrogen separation process), calculate the purge rate required to hold the argon in the recycle stream below 5.0%. Percentages are by volume.
