My route just seemed more logical/easier in my own mind - personal preference I guess?

Thanks for the input. Boiling point elevation occurs as the solution concentrates. When the solution approaches 30% NaOH, the boiling point rises by 30degrees C requiring an evaporator temperature of 90degrees C. Delta T is the difference between steam temp and evaporator solution temp. Or...

Yes it is

It goes on to request evaporator economy Economy = Vapour product steam supplied =0.2934 1 = 0.2934 Again, appears suspect?Other parts require to calculate heat required to raise the feed to boiling temp - I have attempted this...

Below I am unsure of. Guessing I am wrong though but would require some explanation as to where I am going wrong please: Calculate Required Heat Surface Area: Using Q = U A ΔT Q = Heat Load U = Overall heat transfer coefficient 3000W m-2 K-1 A = Heat Transfer Area ΔT =...

Hi All. Please can someone help? I have a question regarding calculating heat load and required surface area for a single effect evaporator. Details: Solution Feed rate 1.1kg s-1 Solution feed concentration 8%, concentrated to 30% Feed solution at 60 degrees Celsius with Specific Heat Capacity...

Hi everyone. I'm currently studying chemical engineering and looking for a bit of advice along the way. Hopefully make new friends as well.
