The feed enters as a twophase mixture that is 30% vapour. The column has a partial reboilerandatotalcondenser.Feedisreturnedtothecolumnfromthecondenserasasaturated liquid. The specifications require that 99.8% of the cumene be recovered in the bottoms and 99.5% of the toluene be recovered in the distillate.
