Question 2 : Multicomponent distillation using FUG method A liquid feed containing 1 0 mol % ethane ( C 2 ) , 3 0 mol

Question2:
Multicomponent distillation using FUG method
A liquid feed containing 10mol% ethane (C2),30mol% propane (C3) and 45mol%n-butane (nC4) and 15mol%n-pentane (nC5) is to be distilled in a tray tower with partial reboiler and total condenser. The feed rate is 100kmolh and at its bubble point. It is desired to recover 98% of propane in the distillate and 97% n-butane in the bottoms product. Assume relative volatility is constant for the column. The values are given below:
