K-factor
•The
vapour-liquid equilibria for a mixture are described by
distribution coefficients or K-factors of material i in the mixture
as:
Vapor pressure
Total pressure

K-factor
• The K factor depends on operating
pressure and temperature.
• The relative difference between the
K factors in a mixture vary little
with temperature and pressure.
• K-factors can be found tabulated
and in diagrams.

Distillation
2. The vapour of a boiling mixture will be richer in the components that have lower
boiling points.
3. When this vapour is cooled and condensed, the condensate will contain more
volatile components.
4. The original mixture will contain more of the less volatile material.
