Acetone as a saturated liquid at 2,280 mm Hg is fed to a vaporizer. The product from the vaporizer is a superheated vapor at 118C and 2,200 mm Hg.
- For a flow rate of 250 mol/min of acetone, how much heat is neded (kW)?
- If steam is available at 400C and 10 bar, and condenses to a saturated liquid at 10 bar, how much steam (kg/hr) is needed to vaporize the acetone?
