Title: Material balance problem - physical process -
Post by: Aymen1saleh on October 19, 2018, 11:29:19 AM
Hi

I have this question said :

Acetone can be recovered from a carrier gas by dissolving it in a pure water stream in a unit called an absorber. In this process unit, 200 lbm/h of a stream containing 20% acetone and 80% gas is treated with 1000 lbm/h of a pure water stream to yield an acetone free overhead gas and an acetone-water solution. Assume no carrier gas dissolves in water. Draw a flowchart for the process and calculate all unknown variables.



I try solve this question and my answer in the image :


Could you please tell me if My answer is right or wrong ? thanks
