Question
Solve for the following problem. Determine the OMB and CB 4. A liquid mixture containing 45% benzene (B) and 55% toluene (T) by mass is fed too distillation column. A product stream leaving the top of the column (the overhead product) containing 99.0 mole % B and a bottom product stream contains 80% of the benzene fed to the column (meaning that 92% of the benzene leaves with the overhead product.). The volumetric flow rate of the fed stream is 2000 L/h and the sp gravity of the feed mixture is 0.872. Determine the mass flow rate of the overhead product stream and the mass flow rate and the composition (mass frac of the bottom product stream)
