Hi,
With the calculation part, please do as stated and I will then rewrite the calculations myself to adhere to the specifications of the assignment in my hard copy.Thanks!

Background Congratulations,youareanengineerworkingforaconsultingcompany.Yourcompanyhasbeenapproachedtohelp with the design an unobtainium production plant. Your job is to provide (in report format) the calculations and recommendationsrequiredfortheirdesign. TechnicalSpecifications In making unobtainium [which is a fictious material in case you were wondering], the unobtainium oxide ore is crushed,put intoa kiln and thenheated to approximately400oC. Theunobtainiumoxide is released from theore body and breaks down intomolecular unobtainiumandoxygen. The unobtainium cools at 350 oC and solidifies as smallparticles,whicharesuspendedintheexhaustflow.Duringthisprocess,significantamountsofmethane(CH4)is alsoproducedandreleased. Duetotherarenatureofunobtainium,thecompanywantstocollecttheunobtainiumforreprocessing.
