The results provided for the toluene hydrodealkylation process are based on the SRK model for both enthalpy and phase equilibria. Determine the BIPs for this model used by the simulator available to you. If you have access to more than one simulator, compare the BIPs from each. Simulate the benzene column (T-101) using the shortcut simulation module and the specifications given in Table 13.2 and the conditions of feed stream (10) given in Example 13.2. Rerun the simulation with all the BIPs set to zero. Compare the results.

Example 13.2

Even though the ions do not directly participate in the VLE of an electrolyte system, why does their presence affect the VLE of an electrolyte system?
