A 100 mol/h feed mixture with 10% pentane, 10% hexane, 30% heptane and 50% octane is to be distilled in a single column to give an overall distillate product that contains no more than 6 mol/h of heptane and a bottoms product that contains a maximum of 3 mol/h of hexane.
Calculate the distillate and bottoms mole fractions XDi and XBi,for all other components.

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...

A mixture of 100 mol containing 60 mol% n-pentane and 40 mol% n-heptane is vaporized at 101.325 kPa abs pressure until 40 mol of vapor and 60 mol of liquid in equilibrium with each other are produced. This occurs in a single-stage system and the vapor and liquid are kept in contact with each other until the vaporization is complete. Calculate the composition of the vapor and liquid. The equilibrium data are as follows, where x and y aremole fractions...

The vapor-liquid equilibrium for n-pentane and n-hexane at 1 ATM is well approximated using a constant relative volatility of 2.95. CMO is valid. For all the problems, the feed stream is flowing at 80 mol/s and contains 45 mol% n-pentane, the feed is a saturated liquid (q = 1) at the column pressure, the distillate is 95 mol% n-pentane, and the bottoms is 10 mol% n-pentane. In this problem, you should analyze the column graphically using the McCabe-Thiele Method a....
