Saturated steam at 232 °C is used to sterilize a liquid solution. The temperature of the process solution prior to sterilization is 25 °C. At the end of sterilization, the temperature of the resulting solution is 120 °C. If 1600 kg of saturated steam is used for sterilization, how much sterilized solution is obtained at the end of this process? For practical purposes, the liquid solution may be assumed to have the same properties as those of saturated steam at its respective temperature.
