Question 2 Methanol is to be separated from water by distillation to produce a distillate product of 95 mol % methanol and a bottoms product of 99 mol % water. The feed is 50% vaporized, and consists of 14,460 kg/hr methanol and 10,440 kg/hr water. The reflux ratio of 2 is to be used. (a) Determine the product rates, kmol/hr. (b) Determine the feed stage location and the number of theoretical stages graphically.
