designing a propane-propylene splitter

[Delorise]

I have to design a propane-propylene splitter. What is a typical feed temperature and pressure? The feed mixture is 30% propane and 70% propylene. The ovhd product purity is 99.9% and the Bottoms product purity is 99%. Where can I get equilibrium data to create the McCabe-Thiele Diagram?

depends on tower pressure. Are you going to use a heat pump tower at 50 psia? or a water colled at 250 psia or an air colled at 300 psia?
