Consider a Hawaiian rural sugar mill which consumes 100 ton/hr of sugar cane. The cane contains about 15 wt% sucrose solution. The remaining plant matter is a waste called bagasse, which can be burned to generate steam. This mill collects 90% of the PM generated from the process. The remaining PM and other waste gasses (2.5 kmol/s) are discharged at 340 K, have a heat capacity of 30 kJ/ kmol/ K, and are emitted from a 25 m stack. The local weather is 305 K on a day with slightly unstable air and wind speed of 4 m/s measured at a height of 10 m.
Calculate the PM emission rate [g/s],
