A distillation column is separating a feed that is 40 mol%
methanol and 60% water. The two phase feed is 60% liquid.
Distillate product should be 92% methanol and bottoms 4 mol%. A
total reboiler and a total condenser are used and reflux is
saturated. Operation is at atmospheric pressure with a reflux ratio
of 0.9. Under these conditions, HG = 1.3 ft and HL = 0.8ft in both
the stripping and enriching sections. Determine the required

N-Heptane / Cycloheptane Separation. A saturated liquid feed of 600 mol/hr containing 54 mole % n-heptane is to be fractionated at 101.325kPa (abs) in order to form a distillate containing 94 mole % n-heptane and a bottoms product of 10 mole % cycloheptane. Assume Raoult’s Law behavior applies (calculated results provided). The distillate reflux ratio to be used is 8:1. a) Calculate the flowrates (mol/hr) of the distillate and bottoms. b) Determine the minimum reflux ratio, RMIN and the minimum...

We are separating acetone and ethanol in a distillation column with a total condenser and a partial reboiler. The column has two feeds and operates at a pressure of 1.0 atm. Feed 1 is a saturated liquid that is 60.0 mol% acetone and has a feed rate of F1 = 200.0 kmol/h. The second feed is 40.0 mol% acetone, has a feed rate of F2 = 300.0 kmol/h, and is a two-phase mixture that is 20% vapor. Assume CMO is...

You wish to remove solute Q from a heavy oil stream by stripping the oil with air. The stripper is expected to operate at 60°C and 2.2 atm pressure. At this temperature and pressure the oil can be considered to be nonvolatile and the air is insoluble in the oil. The inlet liquid flows at 100 kgmole/hr (total flow) and is 20 mole% Q. You wish to reduce the concentration of Q in the oil to 1 mole% Q. The...
