Multiphase Systems
Why Study? - Phase change operations such as freezing, melting evaporation, melting, evaporation condensation Example: 1. brewing a cup of coffee or tea, 2. absorption of SO2, 3. distillation to recover methanol or ethanol from aqueous solution 4. L-L extraction 5. Adsorption

6.1 Single Component Phase Equilibrium


Phase diagram A plot of one system variable against another that shows the conditions at which the substance exists as solid, liquid and gas. Phase Diagram of water - Boiling point - normal boiling point - melting/freezing point - sublimation point - triple point - critical temperature and pressure above which two phases (liquid-vapor) never coexist.

Difference of vapor and gas


Vapor: - Gaseous substance below its critical temperature which can be condensed by compressing or increasing the pressure Gas : - Gaseous substance above its critical temperature which cannot be condensed by compressing or increasing the pressure

Vapor Pressure
Definition: Vapor pressure (also known as equilibrium vapor pressure) is the pressure of a vapor in equilibrium with its nonvapor phases. All liquids and solids have a tendency to evaporate to a gaseous form, and all gases have a tendency to condense back into their original form (either liquid or solid). At any given temperature, for a particular substance, there is a pressure at which the gas of that substance is in dynamic equilibrium with its liquid or solid forms. This is the vapor pressure of that substance at that temperature. The equilibrium vapor pressure is an indication of a liquid's evaporation rate rate. It relates to the tendency of molecules and atoms to escape from a liquid or a solid. Higher the vapor pressure, the more volatile the compound is.

Clapeyron Equation / Clausius-Clapeyron Equation
Example

6.1-1 Vapor Pressure Estimation using Clausius -Clapeyron Equation: If the vapor pressure of benzene is 40 mm Hg at 7.6 oC and 60 mm Hg at 15.4 oC, find the vapor pressure at 42.2 oc using Clausius-Clapeyron Equation

Antoine Equation
log10 p* = A - B/ (T + C)
( - B/ /( (T + C)) p* = 10^(A

T is in oC p* is in mm Hg

Gibbs Phase Rule


How many intensive variables must be specified to define a system? C=number number of components, DOF = 2 + C P, C P=number of phases intensive variables do not depend on the size of the system. Example: molar volume, density Extensive variables depend on the size of the system. Example: mass, volume Calculate DOF for various regions of water phase diagram.

Bubble Point Temperature (for solution)


Bubble point: When a liquid solution is slowly heated at constant pressure, the temperature at which the first bubble forms is the bubble point of the solution at the given pressure.

Solubility
The solubility of a solid in a liquid is the maximum amount of that substance that can be dissolved in a specified amount of the liquid in the equilibrium. The solubility strongly depends on temperature. Saturated Supersaturated Solubility curve

C Slurry from the crystallizer is fed to a filter where the crystals are separated from the solution.

Sulfur trioxide (SO3) dissolves in and reacts with water to form an aqueous solution of sulfuric acid (H2SO4). The vapor is in equilibrium with the solution contains both SO3 and H2O. If enough SO3 is added, all of the water reacts and the solution becomes pure H2SO4. If still more SO3 is added, it dissolves to form a solution of SO3 in H2SO4, called oleum or fuming sulfuric acid. acid The vapor in equilibrium with oleum is pure SO3. A 20% oleum by definition contains 20 kg of dissolved SO3 and 80 kg of H2SO4 per hundred kg of solution. Alternatively oleum composition can be expressed as % SO3 by mass, with constituents of the oleum considered to be SO3 and H2O. a) Prove that a 15.0% oleum contains 84.4% SO3 b) Suppose a gas stream at 40 oC and 1.2 atm containing 90 mol% SO3 and 10% N2 contacts a liquid stream of 98% H2SO4 (aq), producing 15% oleum at the tower outlet outlet. Tabulated equilibrium data indicate that the partial pressure of SO3 in equilibrium with this oleum is 1.15 mm Hg. Calculate i) the mole fraction of SO3 in the outlet gas if this gas is in equilibrium with the liquid product at 40 oC and 1 atm, and ii) the ratio of (m3 gas feed)/(kg liquid feed).
