Problems With Solution

The document describes a separation process involving a feed stream containing components A and B. The separator is designed to remove two-thirds of component A, with the top product containing 10 wt% A and a portion being recycled. The task is to compute the unknown flow rates and compositions of all streams involved in the process.

Fresh feed containing 55 wt% A and 45 wt% B flowing at 100 kg/h enters a separator that
removes a portion of pure component A only as a bottom product. The top product stream
of the separator contains 10 wt% of component A and the balance is B. A small part of the
separator product stream is recycled and joined in the fresh feed stream. The other portion
is purged. The separator is designed to remove exactly two-thirds of component A fed to it
(not the fresh feed). The recycle loop is used to achieve this goal. Compute all unknown
stream flow rates and compositions.
