1.

Explain the manufacturing process of geopolymer concrete and compare it with

traditional cement manufacturing process.
2. Access to raw materials is a common problem in glass manufacturing industry. With
fierce competition from competitors, the raw material proportion and type of material
has been changed. What are the different raw material has been used in Europe
according to Environment 2016 regulations for the manufacture of glass. With
reference to change in raw material, how will you design a flowsheet for the smooth
operation for the manufacture of glass.
3. The basic problem encountered in chlorine manufacturing industry was waste
emissions and corrosiveness. To encounter these problems, industrialists has added
diaphragm valve, sleeved plug valve and lined valve in the production operations.
What is the role of these valves in different phases during production of chlor-alkali
product?. Incorporate these valves at different areas in the manufacture of chlor-alkali
product and explain about the changes encountered during production and how will
you maximize the output?
4. Describe the changes encountered in the system during the manufacture of acetylene
when the following units were replaced:
(i) Preheater with (Burner with Fuel)
(ii) Waste heat boiler with High Temperature Shift Converter
(iii) Regenerator with fractionator

Explain the changes encountered during production with neat flow sheet (No
compromise on output %).

5. Explain the Hydrogen production through thermochemical pathway method with neat
flow sheet
6. Differentiate between auto thermal reforming and steam reforming (minimum 6
points)
7. Differentiate between production of oxygen and nitrogen by Linde-Frankl Cycle and
Kellog Low pressure Cycle process (Minimum 10 Points)
8. Describe the production of natural gas with inclusion of following process units in the
already existing flow sheet.
(i) Turbo expander
(ii) Cooler / Cold Box
(iii) Demethanizer
 (iv) Joule-Thomson Valve

Create a flowsheet of your own and explain the operating parameter changes during
production of natural gas

9. Explain how will you overcome (during manufacture of urea)

(i) High ammonia and dust emission from prilling tower
(ii) Low Prill Quality
10. What are the adverse effect on soil on frequent use of chemical fertilizers? (minimum
5 points)
