Pick out the wrong statement pertaining to the rotary dryer.

Rotary dryer is suitable for drying sticky material
Recommended peripherial speed of a rotary drier is in the range of 10 to 30 metres/minute
Flights (located in the inside shell of rotary dryer) lift the material being dried and shower it down through the current of hot air/gases. It extends from the wall to a distance which is about 8-12%
Hold up of a rotary drier is defined as the fraction of the dryer volume occupied by the solid at any instant. The best performance for rotary drier is obtained, when the hold up is in the range of 0.

Mass Transfer
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. As compared to option (i), in option (ii)

Composition of the residue remains unchanged
More number of trays are required but the residue composition remains unchanged
Less number of trays are required
More number of trays are required and the residue composition is more dilute in methanol
