To solve this problem, we propose here a novel heat-pump-assisted extractive distillation process taking place in a dividing-wall column (DWC).

This paper investigates the effect of variable reflux ratio on final product composition in a laboratory scale distillation column. The findings of this study include a minimum reflux ratio at which ...

Distillation columns are important unit operations in chemical process plants. This paper reviews some techniques of modeling and simulation of distillation columns and describes a model for a ...

Polymer fouling is a ubiquitous but unsolved problem in the separation train downstream of a steam cracker. A mechanistic understanding of polymer fouling would guide mitigation. We present a ...

Don’t like whisky? Then you haven’t properly explored Scotch. Scotland’s whisky-makers are masters of malts, offering more ...
