Chemical Process Flow Rates Analysis

This document summarizes the process flow diagram and stream data for an alkylation unit. It shows the major equipment including reactors, heat exchangers, pumps, columns and vessels. Stream data is provided for 12 streams including temperatures, pressures, vapor fractions, mass and molar flow rates, and flow rates of key components like benzene, cumene, and diisopropylbenzene. The overall process involves mixing benzene and propylene, heating them, reacting them in two alkylation reactors, separating and purifying the reaction products using heat exchangers and distillation columns.
