CO + 3H2 = CH4 + H2O

over Ni/Alumina catalyst.

(a) What is the equilbrium conversion you can get at400oC and 1 atm?

(b) Because of exothermic nature of the reaction, reactiontemperature inside a large scale commercial reactor could be raisedto 700oC even if the feed temperature is kept at350oC. Estimate the equilibrium conversion at700oC and 1 atm.

(c) At what pressure will the equilibrium conversion be 90% at700oC ?

+) to the comments
