Step 1: Mass Balance
Feed factor F/P = (xp − xt) / (xf − xt) = (0.035000.00300) / (0.007110.00300) = 7.7859
F = P × 7.7859 = 1 × 7.7859 = 7.786 kg
T = F − P = 7.7861 = 6.786 kg
Step 2: Value Functions
V(x) = (2x − 1) · ln(x / (1 − x))
V(xp) = V(0.03500) = 3.0846
V(xt) = V(0.00300) = 5.7713
V(xf) = V(0.00711) = 4.8689
Step 3: Separative Work
SW = P·V(xp) + T·V(xt) − F·V(xf)
SW = (1 × 3.0846) + (6.786 × 5.7713) − (7.786 × 4.8689)
SW = 3.085 + 39.16337.909
SW = 4.339 kg-SWU
