Redo Problem 13.12 using Aspen Plus.

Problem 13.12

Ethylene dichloride is produced by the direct chlorination of ethylene using small amounts of ethylene dibromide as a catalyst: 

CH4 + Cl = CH4Cl

If stoichiometric amounts of ethylene and chlorine are used, and the reaction is carried out at 50°C and 1 bar, what is the equilibrium conversion of ethylene? The normal boiling point of ethylene dichloride is 83.47°C.
