The example can be the mixture of acetone , butanol , and water , where butanol is autoentrainer . This limitation, caused by ignoring boilup, is discussed by Strangio and Treybal [21]. The shortcut method is often used as a reference step before undertaking a more rigorous analysis. The first and second Underwood equations, given by equations (1) and (2), have to be solved in order to evaluate the minimum reflux ratio. Once the values for equation (1) are found, then is determined using equation (2). In the solutions where a particular provision of the NDS or SDPWSis cited, reference is made to the document and corresponding provision number, e.g. Underwood’s methods for calculations of stages and reflux ratios as indicated in Table 1.
