Isopropanol, containing 13 wt% water, can be dehydrated to obtain almost pure isopropanol at a 90% recovery

Question:

Isopropanol, containing 13 wt% water, can be dehydrated to obtain almost pure isopropanol at a 90% recovery by azeotropic distillation with benzene. When condensed, the overhead vapor from the column splits into two immiscible liquid phases. Use the relations in Table 2.4 with data in Perry's Handbook and the operating conditions below to compute the rate of heat transfer in Btu/h and kJ/h for thecondenser.image
