Question: QUESTION 2 ( PO 2 , CO 2 , C 3 ) A total feed mixture of 5 0 0 k g h composed of

QUESTION 2(PO2, CO2, C3) A total feed mixture of 500kgh composed of 55wt% heptane and 45wt% ethylbenzene is to be fractionated at 1.0 bar to produce distillate containing 95wt% heptane and bottom containing 2wt% heptane. The liquid mixture enters at distillation column at 327.6 K while the boiling point of the feed is 366.7 K . The average heat capacity of the feed is 159kJkmol*K and the average latent heat is 32,099kJkmol. i. Evaluate the material balance for both enriching and stripping sections in distillation column with aid of sketch diagram. ii. Determine the flow rates of distillate and bottom. iii. Determine the value of feed condition, q for the process. Given: q=+cp(TB-TF)
