If it is known that the mixture follows the
Raouts Law, then the values of yA for various
values of xA may be calculated from a knowledge

Differential Distillation
1. Feature of Differential Distillation
In this process the liquid is boiled slowly and the
vapors are withdrawn as rapidly as they form to
a condenser, where the condensed vapor is
collected. Since the vapor is richer in the more
volatile component than the liquid, it follows
that the liquid remaining becomes steady weaker
in this component, with the result that the
component of product progressively alters.
Thus, whilst the vapor formed over a short
period is in equilibrium with the liquid, the total
vapor formed is not in equilibrium with the
residual liquid.

Subscript m is uesd in place of n to designate a

2. Operating lines
The relationship of concentrations of the vapor
and liquid leaving an ideal plate abides by the
equilibrium curve. What rule should the relation
between concentrations of the vapor leaving an
ideal plate and of the liquid entering it obey?
Since a stream of feed is introduced at feed
plate, the continuity of material flow in the
rectifying section is different from that in the
stripping section.
Thus the situations of rectifying section and
stripping section must be considered separately.

2.The Futures
When the still is operating, since the top product
will be relatively rich in the more volatile
component, the liquid remaining in the still will
become steadily weaker in this component. As a
result, the purity of the top product will steadily
fall. The processes are unsteady state.
80
According to the purpose of operation, two methods of operation for batch distillation are used:
One is constant composition of the top product,
the other is operating at constant reflux ratio
which allows the composition of the top product
to fall.
One of the added merits of batch distillation lies
in the fact that more than one product may be
obtained. The method of operating is particularly
useful for handing small quantities of multicomp-onent organic mixture.

The number of ideal stages required for a
desired separation may be calculated by one of
the methods previously discussed but in
practice it will normally be found that more trays
are required than ideal stages. Then the ratio
