Calculation of water vapor ratio in full cryogenic conversion
Thread Content
Dear sea friends: Our company uses full-low-temperature shift technology, with four shift reactors installed in sequence. How is the water vapor ratio at the inlet and outlet of each furnace calculated? Please give me some advice!
For the first stage of conversion, if no supplementary steam is used, the water-to-vapor ratio can be calculated based on the saturated steam pressure. The second, third, and fourth stages are more complicated; it is necessary to calculate the conversion rate for each stage in order to determine the amount of water consumed. Since you are using a low-conversion process, there should be supplementary water or steam available in the intermediate stages, and this also needs to be taken into account. It can be calculated; it’s just a bit more complicated.
I hope to get some specific guidance! Could you give an example?
