A simple aromatics splitter recovering benzene overhead from a toluene/xylene-heavy feed, as described by R. Strigle (Gulf Publishing, 1987) — a classic packed-column textbook design case.

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.
