Simulation of benzene extraction with n-hexane as solvent by Aspen Plus

Benzene is used mainly as an intermediate to make other chemicals. In this study, benzene extraction from binary mixture of benzene and acetonitrile with n-hexane as solvent were simulated at T = 298.15K under atmospheric pressure, respectively. The NRTL modelewas used and suitability of hexane as a solvent were evaluated and selectivity and distribution coefficient were calculated.The high value of selectivity factors, is reason for be suitable of the solvent for extraction of benzene
