Find the distillate rate, if a differential condenser is used and the equilibrium relation is given as x*= 0.2y. Also the rate of feed is 100 mol/hr.
(a) 12 mol/hr
(b) 22 mol/hr
(c) 33 mol/hr
(d) 44 mol/hr
The question was posed to me in an interview for job.
This interesting question is from Distillation-Differential Distillation topic in section Distillation of Mass Transfer
