Question: Problem# 2 : ( 4 0 ) The four - unit separation train shown in the following diagram has been designed to separate a hydrocarbon

Problem#2: (40)
The four-unit separation train shown in the following diagram has been designed to separate a hydrocarbon mixture containing 20% methane (C1),25% ethane (C2),40% propane (C3) and the remainder butane (C4) into five fractions. With the compositions in molar percentage:
Calculate all streams in the process, considering that stream 5 has a flow of 1000molh and that the recirculation to unit I is 50% of stream 5. It is recommended to start the balance sheet in column II.
Give the "default" tables for all streams N1 to N11.
