Question:

One hundred kmol/h of a three-component bubble-point mixture to be separated by distillation has the composition:

(a) For a distillate rate of 60 kmol/h, five stages, and total reflux, calculate the distillate and bottoms compositions by the Fenske equation. 

(b) Using the separation in part (a) for components B and C, determine Rmin and minimum boilup ratio by the Class 2 Underwood equations. 

(c) For R/Rmin = 1.2, determine N and the feed stage.
