Exercise
A liquid mixture containing 30 mole% benzene
(B), 25% toluene (T) and the balance xylene (X) is
fed to a distillation column. The bottoms product
contains 98 mole% X and no B, 96% of the X in
the feed is recovered in this stream. The overhead
product is fed to second column. The overhead
products from the second column contains 97% of
the B in the feed to this column. The composition
of this stream is 94 mole% B and the balance T.
Draw and label a flowchart and solve all unknowns
variable.
