Distillation Train Solver (MATLAB)

🔍 Problem Statement

This project solves a multicomponent separation problem using distillation train with xylene, styrene, toluene, and benzene. ![Question Diagarm]

Feed Composition:

• 15% Xylene
• 25% Styrene
• 40% Toluene
• 20% Benzene
• F = 70 mol/min

The stream splits into three distillation columns. The MATLAB code solves the mass balances to find out the molar flowrates at D1, B1, D2, B2 and their compositions.
