An equimolar mixture of benzene and toluene is to be separated in a distillation column. We wish to recover 90 % of the benzene in the distillate with a purity of 95% The feed is a bubble point mixture at 101.3 kPa. The reflux ratio for the column is 3 and you can assume that the pressure is constant at the feed pressure. For a total feed rate of 1000 moles/hour calculate: 1. 2. 3. the distillate rate the feed temperature the liquid and vapor flow rates in both the stripping and rectifving sections of the column. Assume constant molar overflow. Assume that Raoult's law applies. The vapor pressure equations for the two species are: ln(PB2)= 13.7819 - 2726.81 / (T- 55.58) In(Prsat)= 13.9320 - 3056.96 / (T - 55.52) Tin K and P in kPa
