  • Question
  • Pick out the wrong statement pertaining to the roll crushers.


  • Options
  • A. Maximum feed size determines the required roll diameter.
  • B. For hard material's crushing, the reduction ratio should not exceed 4.
  • C. Both the rolls run necessarily at the same speed.
  • D. Reduction ratio and differential roll speed affect production rate & energy consumed per unit of surface produced.

  • Correct Answer
  • Both the rolls run necessarily at the same speed.

    • 1. Polyvinyl alcohol is used as a

    • Options
    • A. cation/anion exchanger.
    • B. water soluble adhesive.
    • C. textile fibre.
    • D. non-sticky coating on frying pans.

    • 2. Which of the following factors affect the pressure drop in a co-current gas-liquid absorption packed tower?

    • Options
    • A. Size, shape, orientation and surface of the packing particles.
    • B. Density and viscosity of fluids.
    • C. Fluid flow rates.
    • D. All (a), (b) and (c).
    • Discuss
    • 3. Pick out the wrong statement pertaining to the use of valve tray, seive tray and bubble cap trays in continuous distillation column.

    • Options
    • A. Bubble cap trays though most expensive are the best in situations, where low vapour rates is to be handled and a positive liquid seal is essential at all flow rates.
    • B. Murphree efficiency of all the three trays are nearly equal, however the peak efficiency is generally higher for seive and valve trays than the bubble cap.
    • C. Maintenance cost for valve and seive trays are comparatively more than bubble cap tray due to their relatively complicated construction features.
    • D. Valve trays have the highest turn down ratio (i.e. the ratio of the highest to the lowest vapour flow rates) and thus provides the maximum flexible operating range.

    • A. lower fixed charges for the column.
    • B. greater cost for the reboiler heat supply.
    • C. greater cost for the condenser coolant.
    • D. all (a), (b) and (c).

    • 5. Chrome magnesite bricks are

    • Options
    • A. acidic in nature.
    • B. neutral in nature.
    • C. having higher RUL than silica bricks.
    • D. made by mixing 30% chromite and 70% periclase.
    • Discuss
    • 6. The normal range of velocity of water in pipes is __________ m/sec.

    • Options
    • A. 0.1-0.5
    • B. 1-2

    • 7. Vulcanisation of rubber

    • Options

    • D. converts its plasticity into elasticity.
    • Discuss
    • 8. An increase in the liquid resistance to interphase mass transfer and a resultant reduction in plate efficiency is caused by

    • Options
    • A. an increase in liquid viscosity.
    • B. an increase in relatived volatility for rectification columns.
    • C. decrease in gas solubility for absorbers.
    • D. all (a), (b) and (c).

    • 9. Porosity of silica bricks varies from __________ percent.

    • Options
    • A. 5 to 10
    • B. 20 to 30
