Using a continuous distillation column operating under atmospheric pressure, the alcohol-water mixture with a flow rate of 6000 kg / hour and containing 60% methyl alcohol by weight is distilled, while the head product obtained at the end of the distillation contains 90% methyl atcol by weight, while the base Grain contains 85% water. In this study where the minimum riflax is 0.47, the ratio of riflax will be applied as 3 times the minimum rifaxin. a) Calculate the flow rates of head and sole products as krmol / hour. b) Find the mixposition of the feed stream. c) Find the theoretical number of racks and the location of the feeder rack.
