Chemical process intensification is a long-term goal for chemical engineering scholars, which has attracted people’s attention in recent years 1,2,3,4. The so-called process intensification is to ...
Extractive distillation (ED) processes for separating ternary mixtures of benzene-cyclohexane-toluene with dimethyl formamide (DMF) and N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) were studied using Aspen Plus and ...
Studying case studies of fouling in refinery and petrochemical plant distillation units reinforces the theories of fouling-resistant designs. Case studies help refine these design practices and ...
Distillation columns are extensively deployed in the chemical process industries when there is a need for separation of components that have different boiling points. Typically, a mixture of ...
A well-planned and executed test run of existing equipment followed by a distillation fundamentals review can yield cost-effective production increases. On an existing extractive distillation ...
