Assignment objectives<br />
=====================<br />
<br />
To use ideas and formulas related to mechanical separation units.<br />
<br />
.. |micron| replace:: :math:`\mu \text{m}`<br />
<br />
.. question::<br />
:grading: 8<br />
<br />
#. Prove that for a spherical particle, :math:`S = \displaystyle \frac{6}{d}` = specific surface area of particle per volume of solid particle, with units of :math:`\text{m}^{-1}`.<br />
<br />
#. Calculate this value for spherical particles of 50 |micron| and 100 |micron|.<br />
<br />
#. What is the theoretical value(s) of voidage for spheres?<br />
<br />
#. Calculate :math:`\alpha`, the specific cake resistance value in a filtration system for spherical particles of 50 |micron| and 100 |micron|, where the solids have a density of 2500 :math:`\text{kg.m}^{-3}`.<br />
<br />
.. question::<br />
:grading: 4<br />
<br />
.. From Seader, 3rd edition<br />
<br />
#. Under what assumptions do filtration data from lab equipment plot as a straight line for :math:`V` versus :math:`\dfrac{t}{V}` axes?<br />
<br />
#. Look up the terms "precoat" and "filter aids" in the context of solid-liquid plate-and-frame or vacuum rotary-drum filtration. Explain in an unambiguous manner the purpose they serve.<br />
<br />
.. question:: <br />
:grading: 5<br />
<br />
Your sister company seems to have no problem at their site with particulate pollutant discharge. Your site however experiences continual problems, despite using a similar process.<br />
<br />
You request their flowsheet and notice an arrangement of cyclones as shown below (your flowsheet does not have any cyclones). Explain what this sequence might do to help achieve pollutant reduction.<br />
<br />

:width: 750px<br />
<br />
.. question::<br />
:grading: 20<br />
<br />
The following filtration data are collected from a laboratory unit, using the same filter medium for all experiments. The objective is to determine the constants :math:`\alpha_0` and :math:`f` in the equation for specific cake resistance, :math:`\alpha = \alpha_0 \left(- \Delta P \right)^f`, where :math:`\alpha` and :math:`\alpha_0` are in units of :math:`\text{m.kg}^{-1}`, and :math:`- \Delta P` is in Pascals.<br />
<br />
Test 1 was run at 36 kPa, test 2 run at 128 kPa, and test 3 run at 370 kPa. All tests were run with a slurry concentration of 25 kg dry solids per cubic meter of filtrate, and the viscosity was around :math:`9.2 \times 10^{-4}` Pa.s on a filter of 0.08 :math:`\text{m}^2`.<br />

Apart from the case studies on adsorption, we consider learning skills, based on the [http://www.celt.iastate.edu/teaching-resources/effective-practice/revised-blooms-taxonomy/ two axes presented in this diagram]. <br />

My challenge to you is to honestly locate your capabilities on this graph, and aim to push yourself to the peak.<br />

== Exercise ==<br />
<br />
A stream of acetic acid and water (also called diluent) is being fed in a counter current manner at 1000 kg/hour, in order to extract the acetic acid. The feed composition is 30 wt% acetic acid, and 70 wt% water.<br />
<br />
The solvent is 99% pure IPE (isopropyl ether), and contains 1% acetic acid, at an inlet flow of 2500 kg/hour.<br />
<br />
We desire the exiting raffinate stream to contain 5 wt% acetic acid.<br />
<br />
# Find the number of equilibrium stages to achieve this separation (show all calculations).<br />
# Calculate the exiting raffinate flow, and the exiting extract flow rate.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately, we don't have the equilibrium data, however, various samples of the 3 species were made, mixed, and when they came to equilibrium they were found to have the following compositions (each row gives the aqueous and organic phase compositions):<br />

* 21 Nov: the slides for the Adsorption section were slightly updated: 3 new slides (including 2 practice problems, with final answers) have been added. This is based on the mid-semester feedback you gave me, that you wanted more problems to work on.<br />
* 17 Nov: at this point in the course you should be able to understand exactly the technology that [http://saltworkstech.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Saltworks_Case-Study_ElectroChem-RO-High-Recovery-Brackish-Water_EN.pdf this Canadian company is applying] to treat industrial and municipal wastewater. Also [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SiN96o7RthY watch their company video].<br />
* 14 Nov: as mentioned in class today, there will be no class on Tuesday, 18 November. This is some extra time you can use to finalize [[Course project - 2014| your project]].<br />
* 13 Nov: the midterm grades (and assignment grades so far) are posted on Avenue. <br />
* 12 Nov: The midterms are now completely graded, but the TA's and I are still getting the grades entered into Avenue and finishing the collaborative calculations. The midterms will be returned in Friday's class.<br />
* 11 Nov: there are new notes posted for the next topic [[Adsorption separations - 2014 | on adsorption separations]].<br />
* 05 Nov: Midterm grades are coming soon. With over 100 students registered in the class - the largest elective in ChemEng - and the collaborative midterm creating about 25% extra scripts to grade, that it is not going to be a quick process. The grading is <strike>over 50%</strike> now 90% completed. The TA's and are just entering the grades into Avenue. Midterms will be returned at Friday's class.<br />

* 13 Oct: one hint and one piece of information for assignment 3, question 4: <br />
** the "resistances" refer to \(R_\text{m}\) and \(R_\text{c}\) respectively; and note that \(R_\text{c}\) is a time-varying resistance<br />
** the missing piece of information is that there are 5 plates in the plate-and-frame press; please use this value if you haven't already assumed another.<br />
* 10 Oct: we a guest lecture on Wednesday next week, 15 October. A former 4M3 student that graduated in 2012 and now working at GE Water will be here to talk about membranes; including making a membrane in the class. Hope to see you all here.<br />

* 03 Oct: the [http://waterweek.mcmaster.ca/ McMaster Water Week] is approaching next week, and so are the [[Course_project_-_2014|course projects for 4M3]]. At least one of the 4 projects will be related to water treatment, and I recommend you all attend the poster presentations on Wednesday, 08 Oct, from 2:30 to 4:30pm, in the MSUC atrium.<br />
: If you would like to earn 10% bonus credit for your project, you should attend the poster presentation and interview at least one of the 60 poster presenters. Ask him/her what aspect of water treatment, pollution, or monitoring they are researching; how their work impacts society, and which technological tools they are using. Add this as an extra half-page to your project report.<br />
* 02 Oct: New slides have just been posted for the section on Cyclones. Please print and bring them to class on Friday.<br />
* 24 Sep: the depth of the vessel is likely not required for question 1 in the second assignment. If required, make a reasonable assumption to work with. Once you do so however, redo your calculation with a different depth and see if your answers changed. This way you can confirm the requirement for that assumption.<br />
* 23 Sep: as [[Mechanical_separations_-_2014|pointed out on this page]] laptops will be useful in Wednesday's class. Lots of messy calculations.<br />
* 23 Sep: some [[Mechanical_separations_-_2014|new slides are posted]] for later this week. Please download and bring them to class.<br />

* 17 Nov: at this point in the course you should be able to understand exactly the technology that [http://saltworkstech.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Saltworks_Case-Study_ElectroChem-RO-High-Recovery-Brackish-Water_EN.pdf this Canadian company is applying] to treat industrial and municipal wastewater. Also [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SiN96o7RthY watch their company video].<br />
* 14 Nov: as mentioned in class today, there will be no class on Tuesday, 18 November. This is some extra time you can use to finalize [[Course project - 2014| your project]].<br />
* 13 Nov: the midterm grades (and assignment grades so far) are posted on Avenue. <br />
* 12 Nov: The midterms are now completely graded, but the TA's and I are still getting the grades entered into Avenue and finishing the collaborative calculations. The midterms will be returned in Friday's class.<br />
* 11 Nov: there are new notes posted for the next topic [[Adsorption separations - 2014 | on adsorption separations]].<br />
* 05 Nov: Midterm grades are coming soon. With over 100 students registered in the class - the largest elective in ChemEng - and the collaborative midterm creating about 25% extra scripts to grade, that it is not going to be a quick process. The grading is <strike>over 50%</strike> now 90% completed. The TA's and are just entering the grades into Avenue. Midterms will be returned at Friday's class.<br />
* 03 Nov: we continue on with liquid-liquid extraction this week. Please review the notes from Friday, and we will start on Tuesday with a quick review and then get started on the calculations.<br />
* 03 Nov: also note that the [[Assignment_4_-_2014 |next assignment 4 is posted]]. It is due on 11 November. The due date was shifted to accommodate other midterms and the course project that you should be mostly wrapping up your research for.<br />

* 20 Oct: details about the [[Course_project_-_2014 |course project]] are posted. We will cover them in class on Tuesday, and then continue on with the slides about membranes.<br />
* 13 Oct: one hint and one piece of information for assignment 3, question 4: <br />
** the "resistances" refer to \(R_\text{m}\) and \(R_\text{c}\) respectively; and note that \(R_\text{c}\) is a time-varying resistance<br />
** the missing piece of information is that there are 5 plates in the plate-and-frame press; please use this value if you haven't already assumed another.<br />
* 10 Oct: we a guest lecture on Wednesday next week, 15 October. A former 4M3 student that graduated in 2012 and now working at GE Water will be here to talk about membranes; including making a membrane in the class. Hope to see you all here.<br />
* 07 Oct: the new notes, on [[Membrane_separations_-_2014|membrane separations]] are posted. Please bring them to class on Wednesday morning.<br />
* 04 Oct: The [[Assignment 3 - 2014|next assignment]] is posted and is due 10 days from now: 14 October. No late hand-ins and MSAFs for this one please. Solutions will be posted right at the due time.<br />
* 03 Oct: the [http://waterweek.mcmaster.ca/ McMaster Water Week] is approaching next week, and so are the [[Course_project_-_2014|course projects for 4M3]]. At least one of the 4 projects will be related to water treatment, and I recommend you all attend the poster presentations on Wednesday, 08 Oct, from 2:30 to 4:30pm, in the MSUC atrium.<br />
: If you would like to earn 10% bonus credit for your project, you should attend the poster presentation and interview at least one of the 60 poster presenters. Ask him/her what aspect of water treatment, pollution, or monitoring they are researching; how their work impacts society, and which technological tools they are using. Add this as an extra half-page to your project report.<br />
* 02 Oct: New slides have just been posted for the section on Cyclones. Please print and bring them to class on Friday.<br />
* 24 Sep: the depth of the vessel is likely not required for question 1 in the second assignment. If required, make a reasonable assumption to work with. Once you do so however, redo your calculation with a different depth and see if your answers changed. This way you can confirm the requirement for that assumption.<br />
* 23 Sep: as [[Mechanical_separations_-_2014|pointed out on this page]] laptops will be useful in Wednesday's class. Lots of messy calculations.<br />
* 23 Sep: some [[Mechanical_separations_-_2014|new slides are posted]] for later this week. Please download and bring them to class.<br />

* 07 Oct: the new notes, on [[Membrane_separations_-_2014|membrane separations]] are posted. Please bring them to class on Wednesday morning.<br />
* 04 Oct: The [[Assignment 3 - 2014|next assignment]] is posted and is due 10 days from now: 14 October. No late hand-ins and MSAFs for this one please. Solutions will be posted right at the due time.<br />
* 03 Oct: the [http://waterweek.mcmaster.ca/ McMaster Water Week] is approaching next week, and so are the [[Course_project_-_2014|course projects for 4M3]]. At least one of the 4 projects will be related to water treatment, and I recommend you all attend the poster presentations on Wednesday, 08 Oct, from 2:30 to 4:30pm, in the MSUC atrium.<br />
: If you would like to earn 10% bonus credit for your project, you should attend the poster presentation and interview at least one of the 60 poster presenters. Ask him/her what aspect of water treatment, pollution, or monitoring they are researching; how their work impacts society, and which technological tools they are using. Add this as an extra half-page to your project report.<br />
* 02 Oct: New slides have just been posted for the section on Cyclones. Please print and bring them to class on Friday.<br />
* 24 Sep: the depth of the vessel is likely not required for question 1 in the second assignment. If required, make a reasonable assumption to work with. Once you do so however, redo your calculation with a different depth and see if your answers changed. This way you can confirm the requirement for that assumption.<br />
* 23 Sep: as [[Mechanical_separations_-_2014|pointed out on this page]] laptops will be useful in Wednesday's class. Lots of messy calculations.<br />
* 23 Sep: some [[Mechanical_separations_-_2014|new slides are posted]] for later this week. Please download and bring them to class.<br />
* 19 Sep: as mentioned in class today, the [[Assignment 2 - 2014|second assignment]] is now posted, and is due on Friday - a week from today.<br />
* 18 Sep: the notes for the next section, [[Mechanical_separations_-_2014|on Centrifuges]], are now posted. We should start that section near the end of Friday's class.<br />
* 16 Sep: the notes for [[Mechanical_separations_-_2014|the next section]] are posted.<br />
* 12 Sep: as mentioned in class today, please pay attention to the [http://waterweek.mcmaster.ca/ Water Week] that is happening on campus next month, particularly the distinguished lecture on 08 October.<br />
* 11 Sep: The first assignment is posted; it is fairly short, and due in class on Wednesday. Electronic submissions are preferred for all work in this course, and the process to submit electronically must be followed exactly, as described in the link just below here.<br />
* 09 Sep: The notes for Wednesday's class, [[Mechanical_separations_-_2014|on sedimentation processes]], are posted. See you in class tomorrow.<br />
* 08 Sep: The notes for Tuesday's class, an [[Overview_of_separation_processes_-_2014|overview of the Separations course's technical content]], are posted. See you in class tomorrow.<br />
* 04 Sep: the course notes for the [[Overview_of_separation_processes_-_2014|first class]] are posted now. See you tomorrow for the first class.<br />
* 29 Aug: the first class will be Friday, 05 September, in PC 155, at 9:30. See you there.<br />

The midterm will be on '''15 October 2014''' and will cover all material in the course up to that point. The midterm will start at 18:30, in MDCL 1102.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Answering questions in the midterm'''<br />
<br />
* You may bring in any printed materials to the midterm; any textbooks, any papers, ''etc''.<br />
* You may use any calculator during the midterm.<br />
* You may answer the questions in any order in the answer booklet.<br />
* ''Time saving tip'': please use bullet points to answer, where appropriate, and '''never repeat the question''' back in your answer.<br />
* If anything seems unclear, or information appears to be incomplete, please make a ''reasonable'' assumption and continue with the question.<br />
<br />
'''How to prepare for the midterm'''<br />
<br />
* Understand the concepts being learned. My courses are not about applying the correct equation and solving.<br />
* As you've seen, there are only a handful of equations we have learned in the past weeks. Understanding how to use these equations, and how to interpret them, is important.<br />
* Check that your answers are reasonable (can you really have a flow rate of 1050 \(\text{m}^3.\text{s}^{-1}\) through a pipe?)<br />
* Read the questions carefully: they are usually worded precisely. The biggest point where students loose marks is to answer only part of the question.<br />
* Questions that you did on computer in the assignments: make sure you can repeat them by hand. Obviously not where you have to draw an entire plot, but make sure the calculations to draw that plot can be done for at least one or two points on the curve.</div>Kevin Dunnhttps://learnche.org/wiki_4M3/index.php?title=Liquid-liquid_extraction_-_2014&diff=2040Liquid-liquid extraction - 20142014-12-09T15:16:02Z<p>Kevin Dunn: </p>

== Exercise ==<br />
<br />
A stream of acetic acid and water (also called diluent) is being fed in a counter current manner at 1000 kg/hour, in order to extract the acetic acid. The feed composition is 30 wt% acetic acid, and 70 wt% water.<br />
<br />
The solvent is 99% pure IPE (isopropyl ether), and contains 1% acetic acid, at an inlet flow of 2500 kg/hour.<br />
<br />
We desire the exiting raffinate stream to contain 5 wt% acetic acid.<br />
<br />
# Find the number of equilibrium stages to achieve this separation (show all calculations).<br />
# Calculate the exiting raffinate flow, and the exiting extract flow rate.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately, we don't have the equilibrium data, however, various samples of the 3 species were made, mixed, and when they came to equilibrium they were found to have the following compositions (each row gives the aqueous and organic phase compositions):<br />

* 21 Nov: the slides for the Adsorption section were slightly updated: 3 new slides (including 2 practice problems, with final answers) have been added. This is based on the mid-semester feedback you gave me, that you wanted more problems to work on.<br />
* 17 Nov: at this point in the course you should be able to understand exactly the technology that [http://saltworkstech.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Saltworks_Case-Study_ElectroChem-RO-High-Recovery-Brackish-Water_EN.pdf this Canadian company is applying] to treat industrial and municipal wastewater. Also [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SiN96o7RthY watch their company video].<br />
* 14 Nov: as mentioned in class today, there will be no class on Tuesday, 18 November. This is some extra time you can use to finalize [[Course project - 2014| your project]].<br />
* 13 Nov: the midterm grades (and assignment grades so far) are posted on Avenue. <br />

* 11 Nov: there are new notes posted for the next topic [[Adsorption separations - 2014 | on adsorption separations]].<br />
* 05 Nov: Midterm grades are coming soon. With over 100 students registered in the class - the largest elective in ChemEng - and the collaborative midterm creating about 25% extra scripts to grade, that it is not going to be a quick process. The grading is <strike>over 50%</strike> now 90% completed. The TA's and are just entering the grades into Avenue. Midterms will be returned at Friday's class.<br />
* 03 Nov: we continue on with liquid-liquid extraction this week. Please review the notes from Friday, and we will start on Tuesday with a quick review and then get started on the calculations.<br />

* 20 Oct: details about the [[Course_project_-_2014 |course project]] are posted. We will cover them in class on Tuesday, and then continue on with the slides about membranes.<br />
* 13 Oct: one hint and one piece of information for assignment 3, question 4: <br />
** the "resistances" refer to \(R_\text{m}\) and \(R_\text{c}\) respectively; and note that \(R_\text{c}\) is a time-varying resistance<br />
** the missing piece of information is that there are 5 plates in the plate-and-frame press; please use this value if you haven't already assumed another.<br />
* 10 Oct: we a guest lecture on Wednesday next week, 15 October. A former 4M3 student that graduated in 2012 and now working at GE Water will be here to talk about membranes; including making a membrane in the class. Hope to see you all here.<br />

At least one of the 4 projects will be related to water treatment, and I recommend you all attend the poster presentations on Wednesday, 08 Oct, from 2:30 to 4:30pm, in the MSUC atrium.<br />
: If you would like to earn 10% bonus credit for your project, you should attend the poster presentation and interview at least one of the 60 poster presenters. Ask him/her what aspect of water treatment, pollution, or monitoring they are researching; how their work impacts society, and which technological tools they are using. Add this as an extra half-page to your project report.<br />
* 02 Oct: New slides have just been posted for the section on Cyclones. Please print and bring them to class on Friday.<br />
* 24 Sep: the depth of the vessel is likely not required for question 1 in the second assignment. If required, make a reasonable assumption to work with. Once you do so however, redo your calculation with a different depth and see if your answers changed. This way you can confirm the requirement for that assumption.<br />
* 23 Sep: as [[Mechanical_separations_-_2014|pointed out on this page]] laptops will be useful in Wednesday's class. Lots of messy calculations.<br />
* 23 Sep: some [[Mechanical_separations_-_2014|new slides are posted]] for later this week. Please download and bring them to class.<br />

<br />
The midterm will be on '''15 October 2014''' and will cover all material in the course up to that point. The midterm will start at 18:30, in MDCL 1102.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Answering questions in the midterm'''<br />
<br />
* You may bring in any printed materials to the midterm; any textbooks, any papers, ''etc''.<br />
* You may use any calculator during the midterm.<br />
* You may answer the questions in any order in the answer booklet.<br />
* ''Time saving tip'': please use bullet points to answer, where appropriate, and '''never repeat the question''' back in your answer.<br />
* If anything seems unclear, or information appears to be incomplete, please make a ''reasonable'' assumption and continue with the question.<br />
<br />
'''How to prepare for the midterm'''<br />
<br />
* Understand the concepts being learned. My courses are not about applying the correct equation and solving.<br />
* As you've seen, there are only a handful of equations we have learned in the past weeks. Understanding how to use these equations, and how to interpret them, is important.<br />
* Check that your answers are reasonable (can you really have a flow rate of 1050 \(\text{m}^3.\text{s}^{-1}\) through a pipe?)<br />
* Read the questions carefully: they are usually worded precisely. The biggest point where students loose marks is to answer only part of the question.<br />
* Questions that you did on computer in the assignments: make sure you can repeat them by hand. Obviously not where you have to draw an entire plot, but make sure the calculations to draw that plot can be done for at least one or two points on the curve.</div>Kevin Dunnhttps://learnche.org/wiki_4M3/index.php?title=File:2014-4M3-Midterm-partial-solutions.pdf&diff=2034File:2014-4M3-Midterm-partial-solutions.pdf2014-12-07T18:20:41Z<p>Kevin Dunn: </p>

Add this as an extra half-page to your project report.<br />
* 02 Oct: New slides have just been posted for the section on Cyclones. Please print and bring them to class on Friday.<br />
* 24 Sep: the depth of the vessel is likely not required for question 1 in the second assignment. If required, make a reasonable assumption to work with. Once you do so however, redo your calculation with a different depth and see if your answers changed. This way you can confirm the requirement for that assumption.<br />
* 23 Sep: as [[Mechanical_separations_-_2014|pointed out on this page]] laptops will be useful in Wednesday's class. Lots of messy calculations.<br />
* 23 Sep: some [[Mechanical_separations_-_2014|new slides are posted]] for later this week. Please download and bring them to class.<br />

Assignment objectives<br />
=====================<br />
**Objectives**: We have been doing non-stop examples and problems in class. This assignment gives you a chance now to try some more problems related to liquid-liquid extraction, adsorption and drying; without my help and guidance.<br />
<br />
All these questions are from prior exams and tests.<br />
<br />
.. question::<br />
<br />
The isotherm for benzene, at 25°C, on an activated carbon adsorbent is given as:<br />
<br />
.. math::<br />
<br />
C_\text{A,S} = 32 C_\text{A}^{0.428}<br />
<br />
where :math:`C_\text{A,S}` is in units of mg benzene per gram of carbon, and :math:`C_\text{A}` is in units of mg benzene per litre of water-based solution.<br />
<br />
You want to create your own adsorber packed bed from a piece of piping that has diameter of 24.5 cm.<br />
<br />
The activated carbon supplier has given you the following specification sheet (and the isotherm information above): <br />
<br />
* activated carbon mean diameter = 2 mm<br />
* activated carbon size distribution range 0.4 mm to 3.8 mm<br />
* activated carbon bulk density = 410 g/L<br />
* activated carbon particle density = 520 g/L<br />
* cost of activated carbon is $5.50 per kilogram.<br />
<br />
You would like a breakthrough time of 4 hours when treating a feed stream containing 2.8 g of benzene per litre. You have to treat 30 L per minute of waste water.<br />
<br />
#. What type of adsorption isotherm is this? **[1]**<br />
<br />
#. How long should your packed bed be? Be clear with any simplifying assumptions you make. **[14]**<br />
<br />
Use the rule of thumb that if you cannot perform a lab experiment to calculate the MTZ, that your MTZ is 4ft, and assuming a symmetric wavefront, that the :math:`\text{LUB} = 2 \times \text{MTZ}`.<br />
<br />
#. What will be the cost of the adsorbent you need to purchase? **[3]**<br />
<br />
<br />
.. question::<br />
<br />
.. inspired from example 18.7, Seader, Henly and Roper, p 753.<br />
<br />
A filter cake from a plate-and-frame press is to be dried by circulating warm, dry air over the solids. See `this photo <http://www.flickr.com/photos/cdeimages/6322211031>`_ for a visual idea of what the material looks like. Trays are loaded with the solid, which is 3 cm high and an area of 2.0 :math:`\text{m}^2` per tray. Each tray contains 80 kg of wet filter cake, and the filtration press step leaves the solids with approximately 30 wt% moisture on a dry basis.<br />
<br />
Air at 1 atmosphere, 70°C, and a relative humidity of 10% is used, at an approximate velocity of :math:`4.2 \text{m.s}^{-1}`, in a direction that flows parallel to the solids.<br />
<br />
#. Estimate the mass of water that would be evaporated from the cake after 4 hours. Be clear on all assumptions you make as you proceed. **[12]**<br />
<br />
#. What is the moisture content of the cake after 4 hours, expressed on a dry basis? **[2]**<br />
<br />
#. Name one method we can implement to reduce the drying time. **[1]**<br />
<br />
.. question::<br />
<br />
:math:`140\,\text{kg.hr}^{-1}` of a 40% acetone-in-water mixture are to be separated using trichloroethane as solvent.<br />
<br />
#. Draw a flow diagram that illustrates the cross-current streams, having only 2 cross-current stages.<br />
<br />
#. Draw a general flow diagram that illustrates the counter-current system, with two stages on one end, and two stages on the other end, and a general "Nth" stage in the middle.<br />
<br />
#. If :math:`80\,\text{kg.hr}^{-1}` of pure solvent is fed into the first cross-current stage and :math:`60\,\text{kg.hr}^{-1}` into the second cross-current stage, what will be the acetone purity leaving in the raffinate from stage 1 and stage 2? Show all constructions and calculations on the ternary diagram (download the PDF to get a copy of this diagram). Make sure all lines are clearly visible. *Hint*: you should achieve an acetone concentration in the raffinate of about 11%. **[8]**<br />
<br />
#. What is the overall acetone recovery from such a 2-stage cross-current system? **[3]**<br />
<br />
#. Now use a clean copy of the drawing (i.e. your assignment submission should have two ternary diagrams). In this second diagram start the construction for the counter-current system. The objective is to achieve the same (or better) raffinate concentration in terms of acetone as the cross-current system, but using :math:`40\,\text{kg.hr}^{-1}` of pure solvent.<br />
<br />
With a few basic lines on the drawing you should be able to find the values for these cross-current system:<br />
<br />
a) the expected raffinate flow rate;<br />
b) the expected extract flow rate;<br />
c) the expected extract composition.<br />
<br />
#. Now locate the operating point, :math:`P`, and use this to calculate the number of stages required. Submit your ternary diagram showing these calculations.<br />
<br />
#. Assume that the last stage is at the point you selected in part 5 of this problem (i.e. that it was at that desired 11% level for acetone). Calculate the recovery of acetone for the counter-current system.<br />
<br />
#. Now compare **and contrast** the following parameters for the two configurations:<br />
<br />
* the extract concentration (for the cross-current system this is the blended concentrations of :math:`E_1` and :math:`E_2`)<br />
* the extract flow rate<br />
* the recovery <br />
* the solvent use compared <br />
* *for extra credit*: the capital and operating costs compared between the two systems.<br />
<br />
