In a chemical process, the recycle stream is purged for______________________?
Correct answer: A. Limiting the inerts
- A. Limiting the inerts
- B. Enriching the product
- C. Increasing the product yield
- D. Heat conservation
Explanation
A purge removes a portion of the recycle stream so inert or unwanted nonreactive material does not accumulate to excessive levels. It is not primarily used for product enrichment or heat conservation.
