A distillation column is to be designed to separate the binary mixtures (A and B) for three different systems (I, II and III)

using equilibrium curve diagram as shown in Figures 1-3. Using McCabe-Thiele graphical construction answer the following

questions for each system.

a) Calculate the minimum reflux ratio (Rmin)to effect the separation.

b) Calculate reflux ratio (R) if R is 1.5x Rmin.

c) Determine the number of equilibrium stages for reflux ratio (R) in

part b).

d) Determine the feed location for reflux ratio (R) in part b)
