Problem A continuous rectifying column treats a mixture consisting of 40% weight benzene and 60wt% toluene at the rate of 4 kg/s, and separates it into a product 97 % benzene on the top of column and a liquid containing 98wt% toluene at the bottom of column. The feed is liquid at boiling point. (a) Calculate the weights of distillate and waste liquor per unit time. (b) If a reflux ratio of 3.5 is employed, how many plates are required in the rectifying part of the column ? (c) What is the actual number of plates if the plate efficiency is 60%?

51

Solution The equilibrium, data are plotted on Fig. llh. As the compositions are given as weight %, they must first be converted to mol fractions before the McCabe-Thiele method can be used. Mol fraction benzene in feed

•As the feed is a liquid at its boiling-point, the q-line is vertical and may be drawn at xf =0.44.

(a) A mass balance over the column and on the more volatile component gives in terms of mass flow rates:

• 4.0 = W' + D' 4× 0-4= 0.02W' + 0.97D'from which: W' gives = bottoms flow rate = 2.4 kg/sAnd: D'=top product rate = 1.6 kg/s '

54

(b) If R= 3.5, the intercept of the top operating line on the y-axis is given by xd /(R+1) = 0.974/4.5 = 0.216, and thus the operating lines may be drawn as shown in Fig.11h. The plates are stepped off as indicated and 10 theoretical plates are required.

(b) If the efficiency is 60%, the number of actual plates = 10/0.6 = 16.7 17 actual plates
