Question:
The phthalic acid production scale-down project (Appendix C, Project 3) involves determining a method for scale-down of phthalic acid production by 50 %. The feed section of this process was discussed in Section 22. 4.
a. Identify potential bottlenecks to the 50 % scale-down.
b. Quantify the answer to Part (a); that is, determine the primary bottleneck to \(50 \%\) scale-down.
c. Debottleneck your answer to Part (b).
d. Repeat Parts (b) and (c) until 50% scale-down or a maximum possible scale-down is achieved.
