Distillation is a separation process where liquid or vapor mixture of two or more substance is separated into its desired component fractions through boiling and condensation. In this experiment, mixture of methylcyclohexane (MCH) and toluene were used. This experiment was conducted to determine pressure drop for various boil-up rates in a batch distillation, the degree of foaming on trays each time the power increased and the measurement of Refractive Index. There are two parts of experiments were conducted which were determining pressure drop in batch distillation and determining unknown concentration. With the aim of getting pressure drop of the column, the power was set up to 0.5kW, 0.75kW, 1.00kW, and 1.25kW. For every power, 100mL of sample was collected to measure the Refractive Index. It is observed the degree of foaming was increased with the increment of power. For experiment B, pure MCH, pure toluene, 25% MCH, 50% MCH and 75% MCH were tested for their Refractive Index to compare the value with the previous sample from experiment A. It can be concluded that this experiment has achieved its objectives which is the boil-up rates depend on the heater power used. The greater the heater power, the higher the boil-up rates will be and the refractive index values shows an increment when the power input increase. Turnitin : Percentage Similarity (15%)
