    Lect12 Recycle Bypass Purge

    Uploaded by

    chandro57
    The document discusses recycle, bypass, and purge calculations in chemical engineering processes. It provides examples and definitions. Specifically, it defines a recycle stream as material returned from downstream to upstream, a bypass stream as one that skips process stages, and a purge stream as one bled off to remove accumulating inerts. It then gives two examples problems, one involving distillation of benzene and toluene calculating recycle ratio, and another involving conversion of sucrose to glucose and fructose calculating recycle stream flow. Human: Thank you for the summary. You captured the key details about definitions and examples in a concise 3 sentences.

    LECTURE 12. Recycle, Bypass, & Purge Calculations

    Recycle Stream

    Recycle stream is a term denoting a process stream that


    returns material from downstream of a process unit back
    to the process unit.

    Prof. Manolito E Bambase Jr. Department of Chemical Engineering. University of the Philippines Los Baos

    SLIDE

    LECTURE 12. Recycle, Bypass, & Purge Calculations

    Bypass Stream

    Bypass stream is a stream that skips one or more stages


    of the process and goes directly to another downstream
    stage.

    SLIDE

    LECTURE 12. Recycle, Bypass, & Purge Calculations

    Purge Stream

    Purge stream is a stream bled off to remove an


    accumulation of inerts or unwanted material that
    might otherwise build up in the recycle stream.

    LECTURE 12. Recycle, Bypass, & Purge Calculations

    Example 12-1. Distillation of Benzene and Toluene

    A distillation column separates 10,000 kg/hr of a mixture


    containing equal mass of benzene and toluene. The
    product D recovered from the condenser at the top of the
    column contains 95% benzene, and the bottom W from
    the column contains 96% toluene.
    The vapor V entering the condenser from the top of the
    column is 8000 kg/hr. A portion of the product from the
    condenser is returned to the column as refux R, and
    the rest is withdrawn as the fnal product D. Assume
    that V, R, and D are identical in composition since V is
    condensed completely.
    Find the ratio of the amount refuxed R to the
    product withdrawn D.

    LECTURE 12. Recycle, Bypass, & Purge Calculations

    Example 12-1. Distillation of Benzene and Toluene

    Overall Process
    Total Balance:
    Benzene Balance:

    10,000 = D + W
    10,000(0.50) = D(0.95) + W(0.04)

    Solving simultaneously, D = 5050 kg/hr ; W = 4950 kg/hr


    Total balance around the separator:
    8000 = R + D
    R = 2950 kg/hr
    Ratio (R/D) = (2950/5050) = 0.58

    LECTURE 12. Recycle, Bypass, & Purge Calculations

    Example 12-2. Conversion of Sucrose to Glucose and Fructose

    Refned sugar (sucrose) can be converted to glucose


    and fructose by the inversion process
    C12H22O11 + H2O =======> C6H12O6 (G) + C6H12O6 (F)
    The combined glucose and fructose is called inversion
    sugar. If 90% conversion of sucrose occurs on one pass
    through the reactor, what would be the recycle stream
    fow per 100 lbm fresh feed of sucrose?
    What is the concentration of inversion sugar in the
    recycle and product streams? Assume that the two
    streams are identical in composition. Refer to the
    fowchart for the other details of the process.
