In this work, applications of exergy and economic concepts to compression, heat exchange, and separation processes were used for calculation of the irreversibility rate, thermodynamic efficiency, and ...

Myke King addresses some remaining challenges in the control of distillation columns, starting by showing how important ‘cut’ and ‘fractionation’ are to meeting composition targets In this example we ...

Multicomponent separation of synthetic petrochemical naphtha (hexane, cyclohexane, toluene and xylene) was carried out in a falling film distillation sequence with heat supply using a vapor chamber ...
