- Slides for class (slide 58)
- There will be no formal teaching in class today. You can ask questions about assignment 4, and there will be a tutorial question from assignment 5.
- Consider a system for which you have been given the ternary diagram (see slide 59 and 60). \(A\) = solute, \(S\) = solvent, \(C\) = carrier. The feed, \(F\) enters at 112 kg/hr with composition of 25 wt% solute and 75 wt% carrier.
- Calculate the flow and composition of the extract and raffinate from:
- 1st co-current stage, using a pure solvent flow of 50 kg/hr.
- 2nd co-current stage, with an additional solvent flow of 50 kg/hr.
- For the overall 2-stage system, find the:
- overall recovery
- overall concentration of combined extract streams
- Calculate the flow and composition of the extract and raffinate from:
- The next objective is to have a counter-current system so the raffinate leaving in the \(N^\text{th}\) stage, \(R_N\) has \(y_{R_N} = 0.025\)
- What is the maximum allowable solvent flow?
- Explain whether it's possible to achieve an extract stream of \(y_{E_1} = 0.21\)?
- Show the construction on the ternary diagram for the number of equilibrium stages to achieve \(y_{R_N} = 0.025\), given a solvent flow of 60 kg/hr.
- Plot on the same axes the concentrations in the extract and raffinate streams.
