Q. II: Stabilized effluent from a hydrogenation unit is to be separated by ordinary distillation into five relatively pure products (see species flow rate and volatility data below). Give, in tabular form (for convenience, rename the components A to E in decreasing volatility) a) the possible splits, and b) the possible sequences Component Approximate Relative Volatility (Relative to C5) 3.7 3.1 Feed Flow Rate (Ibmol/hr) Butene-1 (B1) 100.0 n-Butene (NB) 341.0 Propane (C3) 10.0 Butene-2 isomers (B2) 187.0 n-Pentane (C5) 40.0 8.1 2.7 1.0
