Question
Q2:
The feed to a distillation column is separated into net overhead product containing
nothing with a boiling point higher than isobutane and bottoms containing nothing
with a boiling point below that of propane.
Hint: In the overhead there is no n-C5H12 or n-C4H10, and in the bottoms there in no
C2H4, C2H6, or C3H6.
The composition of the feed is
mole %
Ethylene
2.0
Ethane
3.0
Propylene
Propane
Isobutane
5.0
15.0
25.0
n-Butane
35.0
n-Pentane
15.0
Total
100.0
The concentration of isobutane in the overhead is 5.0 mole percent, and the
concentration of propane in the bottoms is 0.8 mole percent.
1. Draw a completely labeled flowchart for the above process
2. Do the degree of freedom analysis for the overall process
