Question

Air composition:

Volume of H2 in 100 m3 air=0.000053 m3

so, to have 0.000053 m3 H2 air needed=100 m3

therefore,to have 18.3 m3 H2 air is needed=3.5×107 m3

similarly,to have 3.4 m3 CH4 air needed=0.2×107 m3

to have 25.4 m3 CO air needed=10×107 m3

to have m3 CO2 air needed=1.5×104 m3

to have 47.8 m3 N2 air needed=61.25 m3

so atleast 10×107 m3 air is needed to have all the components in 100 m3 producer gas

therefore,1 m3 producer gas will contain [(10×107 )/100] m3=106 m3 of air

Explanation / Answer

The percentage analysis by volume of producer gas is:H2= 18.3%, CH4-34%, CO-25.4%, CO2=5.1%, N,-47.8%. Calculate the volume of air required/m3 of gas.
