An inventor is interested in patenting a device. The device takes in 100 kg/min of H2S under ideal conditions. The gas enters the device at 600 K and 4.0 bar and leaves the device at 300 K and 1.0 bar. This process is supposed to produce 5000 J/min of work and requires an undisclosed amount of heat transfer, with a heat sink that is at a constant temperature of 300 K. Is the device patentable, i.e. does it obey the First and Second Laws of Thermodynamics?
