1:Extractive Distillation
Consider the following extractive distillation to
produce 99mol% ethanol using ethylene glycol as
a solvent.
Distillation Tower Spec.
Total theoretical stage: 20 (including reboier and
condenser)
Condenser: Bubble point
Reboiler: kettle-type
Pressure: 1atm
Feed stage: 15
Ethylene glycol feed stage: 5

 FEED1: rightly concentrated ethanol

Composition: ethnol:10mol%,water:90mol%
Flow rate: 10kg-mol/h
Temp.: 25, Press.: 1atm

FEED2: ethylene glycol

Composition: ethylene glycol:100mol%
Flow rate: 1.5kg-mol/h
Temp.: 40, Press.: 1atm

 Product spec.

Product composition: 99mol%

Ethanol recovery through TOP: 90%

Q-1: Calculate the heat duty of condenser and

reboiler of the above extractive distillation
column.
Q-2 Real process needs to recover EG from the
bottom product. Separating EG from water
requires another distillation column that
consumes considerable energy. Calculate the
heat duty of condenser and reboiler of the
recovery distillation column.
