Seeking help in calculating the annual recovery volume of Class A solvents
Thread Content
With 6 tons of methanol fed per batch, a recovery rate of 96%, 3 batches per day over 300 days per year, and unlimited cycles of reuse, what is the annual recovery volume?
This question is phrased really awkwardly. You recover methanol from each batch and use it in the next batch; it’s not just a recovery unit after all, so why ask about the amount recovered? . . Under these operating conditions, the annual consumption of methanol as a raw material can be estimated at around 78 tons per year
