A convective kerosene heater is tested in a well- mixed 140 m3 chamber having an air exchange rate of 0.4 ach. After 2 hours of operation, the nitric oxide (NO) concentration reached 6.5 ppm. Treating NO as a conservative pollutant, estimate the NO source strength of the heater (in mg/hr). Assume: Standard Temp and Pressure

2. Consider a "tight" 300 m3 home with o.2 ach infiltration rate. The only source of CO in the home is the gas range and the ambient concentration of CO is zero. Suppose there is no CO in the home at 6 pm, but then the oven and two burners are on for 1 hour. Assuming the air is well mixed in the house, estimate the CO concentration in the home at 7 pm and again at 10 pm.

A control, process for a glass furnace will remove boron from the 1400 oF furnace by cooling the exhaust to 275 oF in an evaporative cooler to condense B2O3. The cooled exhaust will then pass through a ro verse-jet filter to remove suspended dust, including the B2O3 particulates. Draw a preliminary flow sheet for the process, indicating any auxiliary equipment needed, List any operating difficulties you think might arise with this system.
