1. A solution containing 50% KOH is fed at a rate of 1000 mol/h to an evaporator to produce a concentrated solution containing 80%mol KOH. The concentrated solution is then fed to a crystallizer to produce a filter cake containing 90% pure KOH and 10% mother liquor (60% KOH solution). The rest of the mother liquor (60% KOH solution) is recycled back to the evaporator. Determine the values of B, C, P and W. Refer to the figure below.
