0 mole%
acetone in a counter-current tray column. The total inlet gas flow is 30.0 kg-
mole/hr, and the total inlet water (pure) is 90.0 kg-mole/hr. The process
operates isothermally at 300 K and 101.3 kPa total pressure. The equilibrium
solubility relationship of acetone in water at 300 K is given by Henry's Law as
y = 2.53 x. [15]
2. 100 kg/hr of fresh fish liver containing 25% oil has to be extracted with ethyl
ether in a continuous counter-current leaching unit. 95% of the oil has to be
extracted and the strong solution should contain 0.70 mass fraction oil.
Given the following Data
