Equilibrium Stages - Single-stage


equilibrium
contactor
Binary distillation - components A & B
yA1 yA2

xA0 xA1

Constant molal overflow: V1 = V 2


L0 = L1

Total material balance: L0 + V2 = L1 + V1


Balance on A: L0xA0 + V2yA2 = L1xA1 + V1yA1

Unknown : x1 & y1 – solve simultaneously (graphically) between equilibrium line


& overall material balance
