Pure propane (C3H8) from El Paso is dehydrogenated catalytically in a continuous process to obtain propylene
(C3H6). All of the hydrogen formed is separated from the reactor exit gas with no loss of hydrocarbon. The
hydrocarbon mixture is then fractionated to give a product stream containing 88 mole % propylene and 12
mole % propane. The other stream, which is 70 mole % propane and 30 mole % propylene, is recycled. The
one-pass conversion in the reactor is 25%, and 1000 kg of fresh propane are fed per hour. Find (a) the kg of
product stream per hour, and (b) the kg of recycle stream per hour.
