4. Fresh feed stream flowing at 100 kg/h contains 20% by weight KNO3 (K) in H20 (W). The fresh feed stream is combined with a recycle stream and is fed to an evaporator. The concentrated liquid solution exiting the evaporator contains 50% KNO3 and is fed to a crystallizer. The crystals obtained from the crystallizer are 96% KNO3 and 4% water. The liquid from the crystallizer constitutes the recycle stream and contains 0.6 kg KNO3 per 1.0 kg of H20. Calculate all stream flow rate values and compositions.
