Flash Distillation Cascade for an Acetone-Chloroform Mixture
Requires a Wolfram Notebook System
Interact on desktop, mobile and cloud with the free Wolfram Player or other Wolfram Language products.
A binary mixture of acetone and chloroform is fed to a flash distillation cascade. This mixture contains a user-set value of mole % acetone. This binary mixture presents a negative azeotrope with 34.07 mole % of acetone at a boiling point of 64.49 °C. Vapor-liquid equilibrium data is generated using a modified Raoult's law with activity coefficients predicted by the van Laar model.
