In a Teflon plant, a separator is used to recover 90% Teflon product. The separator has two outlet streams i.e the teflon product stream and a residual water stream. A portion of the feedstock to the process is bypassed to be mixed in with the residual water stream leaving the separator. The feedstock stream is 75% water and 25% Teflon by weight, and flowsat a rate of 250 lb/min. 50% of the feedstock is bypassed. The saparator removes 60% of theTeflon originally sent in the feedstock. Determine the composition of the residual water stream right after leaving the separator and right after the mixing point of the bypass stream.
