Question

A feed of 62 mol% para-dichlorobenzene in ortho-dichlorobenzene is separated by distillation at near-atmospheric pressure into a distillate containing 98 mol% para isomer and bottoms of 96 mol% ortho isomer. If a total condenser and partial reboiler are used, q=0.9, average α = 1.154, and R/Rmin=1.15, use the FUG procedure to estimate the theoretical stages required.
