Relationship between hydrogen partial pressure, hydrocarbon partial pressure, and hydrogen-to-hydrocarbon ratio
Thread Content
In the reactor, are the hydrogen partial pressure and the hydrocarbon partial pressure distributed in proportion to their molar volumes? If all other conditions remain unchanged, and theoretically hydrogen and hydrocarbons are placed in two containers of equal volume, then will the pressure of the mixture in the reactor be equal to the sum of the pressures in the two containers? I would appreciate your advice.
Generally, the hydrogen partial pressure is sufficient to consider; the molar volume ratio is usually used, and the higher the purity of hydrogen, the higher its partial pressure!
Reactor pressure = Hydrogen partial pressure * Xi1 + Hydrocarbon partial pressure * Xi2. Xi1 is the molecular ratio of hydrogen, while Xi2 is the molecular ratio of hydrocarbons
