Question:
A column at 101 kPa is to separate 30 kg/h of a bubble-point solution of benzene and toluene containing 0.6 mass-fraction toluene into an overhead product of 0.97 mass-fraction benzene and a bottoms product of 0.98 mass-fraction toluene at a reflux ratio of 3.5. The feed is sent to the optimal tray, and the reflux is at saturation temperature. Determine the:
(a) Top and bottom products and
(b) Number of stages using the following vapor–liquid equilibrium data.
