please solve the problem using material balance without chemical reaction, recirculation and purge, make use of the diagram
In the steam generation process represented in the figure, it is desired to produce 350,000 pounds of steam/hour in the boiler to feed them to the evaporators. in the evaporators it loses 25% of the steam to the atmosphere, while the rest is condensed and recycled to the boiler. In evaporators, however, for every 25 pounds of condensate that is recycled, one pound of a solution containing 1% dissolved solids. If the fresh feed water contains 150 ppm dissolved solids and the inlet to the boiler must not contain more than 350 ppm of solids, find: i) The pounds of water fed. ii) Recirculated pounds per hour and their composition. iii) The amount of purge and its composition.
