Step 6: Fix recycle flow rates and vapor and liquid inventories :
Need to control vapor inventory in V-100: Use V-5 (already installed)
Need to control liquid inventory in V-100: Use V-4
Need to control liquid inventory in R-100: Use V-1
Example 2: Acyclic Process
Step 8: Control the individual process units N/A: All control valves in use
Step 9: Optimization
Install composition controller, cascaded with TC of reactor
