A molten polystyrene/toluene melt is flashed above its Flory-Huggins bubble point to strip residual solvent — the polymer thermo package's headline use case: the vapor leaves essentially pure solvent while the melt concentrates toward pure polymer, exactly the physics a cubic EoS or an ordinary activity model (sized for components of comparable molecular size) can't represent.

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.
