Feasible Regions for Product Compositions in Ternary Mixtures
Feasible Regions for Product Compositions in Ternary Mixtures
The Demonstration plots the feasible regions for product compositions in an ideal ternary mixture of , , and , where the lightest component is and the heaviest compound is ; here the relative volatilities are 12.67, 5.35, and 1.0. You can set the feed location by dragging the locator. The yellow regions correspond to product compositions for direct split ( split; i.e., is obtained as a distillate while and are bottom products). On the other hand, the magenta regions correspond to product compositions for indirect split ( split; i.e., and are obtained as distillates and is found in the bottom).
