A Liquid Mixture Containing 30 0 Mole Benzene B 25 0 Toluene T And The Balance Xylene X Is Fed To A Distillati 1 (83.37 KiB) Viewed 34 times
A liquid mixture containing 30.0 mole% benzene (B), 25.0% toluene (T), and the balance xylene (X) is fed to a distillation column. The bottoms product contains 98.0 mole% X and no B, and 85.5% of the X in the feed is recovered in this stream. The overhead product is fed to a second column. The overhead product from the second column contains 97.0% of the B in the feed to this column. The composition of this stream is 94.0 mole% B and the balance T.
Still 1 * You should be able to solve for one variable at a time. Write three balances and use one constraint for the performance of Still 1 to solve for the following quantities for a process feed (n) of 200.0 mol/h. Bottoms flow rate (n₂) = First Still 1381.4 Overhead fow rate (n3) = i 618.55 Benzene mole fraction in overhead (X3B) = Toluene mole fraction in overhead (x37) = i 0.97
