Question: n HDA process a column separating H _ { 2 } C * H _ { 4 } from Benzene. Column feed is 4 0

n HDA process a column separating H_{2}C*H_{4}from Benzene. Column feed is 400mol/hr and mole fraction X H2=0.0055X CH4=0.0324; X Bmx -0.961; X Tol =0; Assume 99.85%recovery of benzene from feed at the bottom of the column and 100% recovery of H_{2}and CH4at column overhead. M&S index 800.Estimate the column overhead vapor distillate flow (D),Liquid flow (L)and vapor (yi),liquid (xi) composition if the value of equilibrium K H2=550; K CH4=240and K Benz =0.04.
