Conclusions
We have seen how to use
macroscopic mass balances in the particular case of a linear cascade of binary
separators. Although all equipment is
different, the same basic approach is followed for each of them. We also saw the importance of the separation
factor in separations such as distillation and, in the particular case of batch
distillation, how to determine the minimum number of stages required to achieve
a particular product and waste stream.
