Question 3: D4(Wankat,2017)
400kgh of an aqueous feed that is 0.5wt% acetic acid mixture is extracted with 3 heptanol at 25C. Assume water and heptanol are immiscible. Equilibrium is WeightfractionaceticacidinsolventWeightfractionaceticacidinwater=0.828
Solvent flow rate is 560kgh. Entering solvent contains 0.01wt% acetic acid.
a. Find outlet raffinate and extract mole fractions for 10 equilibrium stages.
b. Find outlet raffinate and extract mole fractions for 11 equilibrium stages.
