Fresh apple juice contains 75% water flowing at a mass flow rate of 200 kg/h. The fresh juice is concentrated in an evaporation process. A portion of the fresh feed is bypassed to meet the evaporator maximum capacity. The bypass stream joins the evaporator outlet stream. Ninety percent of the water entering the evaporator is evaporated. The concentrated apple juice contains 25% water. Draw the process flow sheet and calculate the mass flow rates of produced and evaporated streams. provide me with clear steps

2500 lbm/h of fresh fruit juice containing 88 wt% water and 12 wt% solids is sent to an evaporator. 75% of the water (by mass) is removed in the evaporator, producing a concentrated product. Determine the amount of water evaporated (in kg/s) and the concentration of solids (in wt%) in the product stream. Draw a flow chart.

Feed saline (salt) water containing 5 wt% dissolved solids and the balance water enters an evaporator plant. The purpose of the evaporator plant is to concentrate the saline solution and to reduce its volume before discharge to a nearby waste storage dam. The feed saline water entering the evaporator unit is concentrated by a factor of 5 (wt% basis). The throughput of the evaporator is limited to 150 kg/h. When the feed saline water flowrate exceeds 150 kg/h, the excess...

The figure shows a flowchart for the production of potassium nitrate. The fresh feed consists of 850 kg per hour of a 20% potassium nitrate solution which is concentrated in an evaporator. Before entering the evaporator the fresh feed is mixed with a regulated stream of a saturated solution at 40 degrees Celsius from a filter. The saturated solution of this salt at 40 degrees Celsius has a composition of 0.6 kg of salt per kilo of water. From the...

Seawater containing 3.50 wt% salt passes through a series of 9 evaporators. Roughly equal quantities of water are vaporized in each of the 9 units and then condensed and combined to obtain a product stream of fresh water. The brine leaving each evaporator but the 9th is fed to the next evaporator. The brine leaving the 9th evaporator contains 4.70 wt% salt. It is desired to produce 1 x 104 L/h of fresh water. 1)How much seawater must be fed...
