Thank you for taking the time to make the videos, they are a tremendous help. There aren't a lot of chem-e videos on the net; and I feel like this one one of the only way I can learn. I have also shared your videos with my classmates. Your efforts are much appreciated.

We really appreciate the comments and you sharing them with classmates. The more we can reach out to students, the more likely we can keep funding the work. Please feel free to send suggestions on screencasts to us. Thanks!

Nitrogen is 13% of Stream 3. in the recycle stream Nitrogen 14.8%.

The problem reads ...."feed to the reactor, which contains 13% nitrogen."

Thank you for pointing this out. We actually perform all material balances correctly to solve this particular problem but we do not use the book problem exactly as stated. We should remove that and plan to soon. Thank you for pointing this out.

At 9:36, isn't n2 meant to be used, not n6?

Hi can you solve this question in extend of reaction version (to solve degrees of freedom, unknowns and such) ? Thank you!

Yes 13% N is fed to the reactor, much thanks from Algeria
