Question: A saturated liquid feed containing 3 5 mok % x ( 1 ) , 3 5 mole % Y ( 2 ) and 3 0

A saturated liquid feed containing 35mok%x(1),35 mole %Y(2) and 30 mole Z(3) is to be fractioned to recover 97% of the x at the top and 98% of the Y in the bottom product. The total pressure is essentially atmospheric and the reflux returnet the tower is at its bubble point. Determinea minimum number of trays and minimum reflux ratio.
Z does not come out the top.
t Take the basis as Feed =1000kmolh
The average relative volatility 12=2.4,32=0.45
