THEORY:
If the substance A is immiscible with water. The feed contains A and traces
of
nonvolatile impurities. Let be the vapour pressure of A at the operating
temperature, the vapour pressure of B (water), and P be the total
pressure.
Since A & B are essentially immiscible, the total pressure is the sum of
the individual pressure.
= +
If moles of the substance are volatilized out by putting in moles
of steam and if the system operates at equilibrium, we may write:
= =
−
However, if the system does not operate at equilibrium, the partial pressure
of A will be less than its vapour pressure. To take into account such a
deviation, we define a factor called vaporizing efficiency E of the product
such that the
