Leaching of Oil from Soybeans in a Single Stage. Repeat Example 31.2-1 for single-stage leaching of oil from soybeans. The 100 kg of soybeans contains 22 wt % oil and the solvent feed is 80 kg of solvent containing 3 wt % soybean oil. 

EXAMPLE 31.2-1. Single-Stage Leaching of Flaked Soybeans
In a single-stage leaching of soybean oil from flaked soybeans with
hexane, 100 kg of soybeans containing 20 wt % oil is leached with
100 kg of fresh hexane solvent. The value of N for the slurry
underflow is essentially constant at 1.5 kg insoluble solid/kg solution
retained. Calculate the amounts and compositions of the overflow V1
and the underflow slurry L1 leaving the stage.
Solution: The process flow diagram is the same as given in Fig. 31.2-
2a. The known process variables are as follows: for the entering
solvent flow, V2 = 100 kg, x42 = 0, XC2 = 1.0; for the entering slurry
stream, B = 100(1.0 – 0.2) = 80 kg insoluble solid, Lo = 100(1.0 –
%3D
0.8) = 20 kg A, No = 80/20 = 4.0 kg solid/kg solution, yA0 = 1.0.
To calculate the location of M, substituting into Eqs. (31.2-4),
(31.2-5), and (31.2-6) and solving,
L, + V, = 20 + 100 = 120 kg = M
%3D
LY A0 + V,*42 = 20(1.0) + 100(0) = 120x AM

Hence, XAM = 0.167.
B = N,L, = 4.0(20) = 80 = N,(120)
N = 0.667
The point M is plotted in Fig. 31.2-3 along with V2 and Lo The
vertical tie line is drawn locating L1 and Vị in equilibrium with each
other. Then, N1 = 1.5, yA1 = 0.167, xA1 = 0.167. Substituting into
Eqs. (31.2-4) and (31.2-6), and solving or using the lever-arm rule, L1
= 53.3 kg and V = 66.7 kg.
