Aer thorough mixing for the required time of reaction, the reaction mixture is dumped into a settler, where the nitro isomers and unreacted toluene are separated from the unconsumed mixed acid. The nitro isomers and unreacted toluene are then fed to a tank with a mixer to be washed by a dilute solution of sodium carbonate.

The isomers and unreacted toluene mixture is finally washed with water in a similar way as for the washing with the dilute alkali solution. The finally washed isomers and unreacted toluene mixture is fed to a continuous distillation column, where unrected toluene is separated as an overhead product and recycled to the reactor.

The economic issues that must be taken into consideration in the design basis inctude: ) capital cost ) operating cost |.) and lifecycle costing. 4) all of the previous 139. Reftigerants made up from components that can be produced in the process have the following advantage: BE they have a simpler compression cycle ») they have a higher heat capacity ) they obviate the need for external supply to make up refrigerant losses 4) none of the previous ) 140. ‘The advantage of using large train capacity technology is 3) to use higher capacity by to increase the price of LNG produced ) to lower CAPEX per tone of LNG equipment 4) 10 use higher refrigerants flow rates 41. CAPEX is a fund used to: 2) afford unexpected expenses ) buy feed gas ) develop existing units 4) pay for the used utilities 142. The space requirements for the cascade and MRC cycle are greater in comparison with expander cycle because: 2) ) they use higher refrigerants flow rates ») oftheir need for hydrocarbon refrigerant storage ©) they use spiral wound heat exchangers 4) parallel reftigerants pression 143. "The double expander cycle has a power consumption: a) higher than the single expander cycle ») lower than the cascade cycle ) lower than the single expander cycle with propane precooling 4) higher than the cascade cycle }44.
