Application of the algorithm for analysis of vapor-liquid equilibrium data can be illustrated with the isobaric data of 0th-mer (1928) for the system acetone(1)-methanol(2). For simplicity, the van Laar equations are used here to express the activity coefficients.

The boiling point-equilibrium data for the system acetone-methanol at 760 mm Hg are given in Table 18.7. A column is to be designed to separate a feed analyzing 25 mole percent acetone and 75 mole percent methanol into an overhead product containing 78 mole percent acetone and a bottom product containing 1.0 mole percent acetone. The feed enters as an equilibrium mixture of 30 percent liquid and 70 percent vapor. A reflux ratio equal to twice the minimum is to be used. An external reboiler is to be used. Bottom product is removed from the reboiler. The condensate (reflux and overhead product) leaves the condenser at 25°C, and the reflux enters the column at this temperature. The molal latent heats of both components are 7700 g cai/g mol. The Murphree plate efficiency is 70 percent. Calculate (a) the number of plates required above and below the feed (b) the heat required at the reboiler, in Btu per pound mole of overhead product (c) the heat removed in the condenser, in Btu per pound mole of overhead product.
