The initial process in most refineries is a simple distillation in which the crude oil is separated into various fractions. The flowsheet for one such process is illustrated in Figure. Make a complete material and energy balance around the entire distillation system and for each unit, including the heat exchangers and condensers. Also: Figure: 500 F Tower I Furnace 250°F 200°F Heat exchanger Storage residue 500,000 lb/day 90°F Overhead H₂0 Condenser H₂O 70°F I 120°F 480°F Bottoms Charge oil Overhead, tower I Bottoms, tower I Overhead, tower II Bottoms, tower II 180°F Steam Preheater 260°F Storage naptha 200,000 lb/day 90°F Specific Heat of Liquid Btu/(lb)(°F) 0.53 0.59 0.51 140°F 0.63 0.58 Tower II Overhead 150°F 100 111 92 118 107 Heat exchanger IV.
