A 30 mol% feed of benzene in toluene is to be differentially distilled. A distillate having an average composition of 45 mol% benzene is to be produced.
For continuous distillation of a binary mixture of constant relative volatility, Fenske equation (6-62) can be used to estimate the minimum number.
A straw oil used to absorb benzene from coke-oven gas is to be steamstripped in a sieve-plate column at atmospheric pressure to recover the dissolved benzene.
Assume that the properties of the liquid are similar to those of pure water and that the properties of the flue gases are similar to those of air.
A system for recovering methanol from a solid product wet with methanol involves evaporation of the alcohol into a stream of inert gas, essentially nitrogen.
