Methyl acetate transesterifies with n-butanol over the reactive stages of a column into butyl acetate (a common paint/coatings solvent) and methanol, which is pulled overhead as it forms while high-boiling butyl acetate collects in the bottoms. Luyben et al., Ind. Eng. Chem. Res. 2011, 50, 1247.
The flowsheet
The solved topology — every unit op's real duty, conversion, or split, read straight off a genuine converged solve.
The stream table
Every stream's flow, temperature, pressure, and composition — real converged numbers, not placeholders.
