Question
A continuous gravity decanter is to separate nitrobenzene of
density 75 lbm/ft3 from aqueous was liquid density 64
Ibm/ft3. If the total depth in separation is 3 ft and interface
is to be 1.5 ft from the vessel floor, then what should be the
height of the heavy liquid overflow leg and how much will an
error of 2 inches in this height (ha2) will affect the interface
position? Calculate the percent difference of the original
interface height ha1 compared to the adjusted ha1 due to
the 2-inch error in the height of the heavy liquid overflow,
ha2?
