As a resin bed height increases, the resin is susceptible to compression. By increasing the permeability of a packed resin bed through control of the hydraulic radius, column pressure-flow dynamics ...

Abstract: This contribution addresses the development of a Linear Quadratic regulator (LQ) for controlling concentration profiles along a catalytic distillation column which is modelled by a set of ...

Article Views are the COUNTER-compliant sum of full text article downloads since November 2008 (both PDF and HTML) across all institutions and individuals. These metrics are regularly updated to ...

A case study based on a real process, the purification of 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) in a high-purity distillation column, is presented. This column has the highest steam flow rate in any vinyl chloride ...

Abstract: This paper proposes a comprehensive framework designed for the autonomous inspection of complex environments, with a specific focus on multi-tiered settings such as distillation column trays ...

The column, measuring 10 metres wide and 66 metres in height weighs 1,300 tonnes, making it among the biggest single crude distillation column in the refining industry.
