Module 3
Water evaporated
10,000 kg/h
Evaporator
Weak liquor,
15% NaOH
Thick liquor, 40%
NaOH
Let x – kg/h of thick liquor obtained
Material balance of NaCl: 0.1 * 15000 = 0.02 * 5000 + z => z = 1400 kg/h
Water evaporated
Weak liquor,
Evaporator
5% Solid
Thick liquor, 50%
solids
Case - I
Let x – kg/h of weak liquor => 0.05 x = 100 => x = 2000 kg/h
