high boiler
- (B) Liquid is enriched
with high boiler
- (C) Vapor is stripped of
low boiler

5. An aqueous solution of methanol is to be distilled in a tray column. High pressure steam is available as a source of heat. For a given reflux ratio and overhead composition, two options are being explored; (i) a reboiler is used and (ii) no reboiler is used but steam is fed directly to the bottom of the column.

- (A) Less number of trays
are required
