Binary Distillation with Open Steam Heating

[@faroukmerouani5902]

Hi thanks for the video, how do you calculate the required steam consumption?

[@10minutesreads]

What kind of steam do we use... superheated or saturated.? if any of these can be used.. what effects will they have on product quality?

[@moamenazizieh3044]

We use the saturated steam in this case & if we used the superheated the previous equation will no be applicable

[@hc5865]

It it stated in the problem, saturated steam will be used

[@FernandoRamirez-ch4io]

I can't understand the balance of L+S=B+V; If i say in=out, then it is L=B, isn't it?

[@LearnChemE]

I assume you are talking about the balance that is written at 7:05. Yes, L(bar) is going in and B is coming out, but S is also going in and V(bar) is also going out. You must also include those two streams.
