1. DEVELOPMENT OF A START-UP OPERATION AND DYNAMIC BEHAVIOR OF A THERMALLY COUPLED EXTRACTIVE DISTILLATION SCHEME
ABSTRACT The startup operation of distillation columns is one of the most complex steps performed in the industry. This complexity becomes even greater for thermally coupled extractive distillation systems. Thermally coupled configurations are commonly used in order to minimize the excessive amount of energy required to perform distillation. In view of this,

2. Analysis and extension of the Furter equation, and its application in the simulation of saline extractive distillation columns
ABSTRACT Simulation of saline extractive distillation columns is a difficult task owing to the high nonlinearity of the rigorous models that represent these systems. The use of simple models to obtain initial estimates of equilibrium compositions may improve the stability and rate of convergence. One of the simplest models to study the vapor-liquid equilibri

3. CONCEPTUAL DESIGN OF NON-IDEAL MIXTURE SEPARATION WITH LIGHT ENTRAINERS
Abstract A method is proposed to study the separation of minimum-, maximum-boiling azeotropic, and low volatility mixtures with a light entrainer, to investigate feasible regions of the key operating parameters reboil ratio (S) and entrainer - feed flowrate ratio (FE/F) for continuous processes. The thermodynamic topological predictions are carried out for 1

4. ETHANOL DEHYDRATION IN PACKED DISTILLATION COLUMN USING GLYCEROL AS ENTRAINER: EXPERIMENTS AND HETP EVALUATION
Abstract The ethanol-water separation is very important because ethanol is widely applied in the chemical industry and its use as a fuel can reduce the pollution emitted to the air. However, anhydrous ethanol production using conventional distillation is impossible, at atmospheric pressure, due to the presence of an azeotrope. In the present work, experiment

5. THERMODYNAMIC TOPOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF EXTRACTIVE DISTILLATION OF MAXIMUM BOILING AZEOTROPES
Abstract This paper provides a feasibility study of azeotropic mixture separation based on a topological analysis combining thermodynamic knowledge of residue curve maps, univolatility and unidistribution curves, and extractive profiles. Thermodynamic topological features related to process operations for typical ternary diagram classes 1.0-2 are, for the fi

6. MODELING AND SIMULATION OF A BENZENE RECOVERY PROCESS BY EXTRACTIVE DISTILLATION
Abstract Extractive distillation processes with N-formylmorpholine (NFM) are used industrially to separate benzene from six carbon non-aromatics. In the process studied in this work, the stream of interest consists of nearly 20 different hydrocarbons. A new set of NRTL parameters was correlated based on literature experimental data. Both vapor-liquid equilib

7. Simulation of ethanol extractive distillation with mixed glycols as separating agent
Extractive distillation is an alternative for ethanol dehydration processes that has been shown to be more effective than azeotropic distillation and, in close proximity, to be very competitive against the process that uses adsorption with molecular sieves. Glycols have been shown to be the most effective solvents in extractive distillation, mainly ethylene

8. Brazilian vodkas have undetectable levels of ethyl carbamate
While in Europe vodka is mainly derived from potatoes or cereals, a large proportion of Brazilian vodka is likely obtained from sugarcane, which contains ethyl carbamate (EC) precursors. EC, in addition to several other contaminants and congeners, were investigated in 32 samples of Brazilian vodka. All samples complied with the Brazilian regulations for cong

9. Simulação do processo de adsorção psa para separação da mistura etanol-água / Simulation of the adsorption process psa for separation of ethanol-water mixtures
One of the problems with ethanol production is the high energy cost which is associated with the separation of ethanol due to of excess water and the existence of an azeotrope in the mixture ethanol-water, by conventional distillation the mixture can be separated up to 95% weight. Currently, there is great interest in the development of technological process

10. Dynamic optimization of the benzene extractive distillation unit
A mathematical model has been developed for describing the dynamic operation of the N-formylmorpholine extractive distillation column and the corresponding solvent recovery column in the benzene extraction plant. The NRTL equation was used to calculate the equilibrium and thermodynamic properties of the mixtures. The validity of the model in terms of tempera

11. Separation of ethanol and water by extractive distillation with salt and solvent as entrainer: process simulation
The aim of this work is to simulate and analyze an extractive distillation process for azeotropic ethanol dehydration with ethylene glycol and calcium chloride mixture as entrainer. The work was developed with Aspen Plus® simulator version 11.1. Calculation of the activity coefficients employed to describe vapor liquid equilibrium of ethanol - water - ethyl

12. Desenvolvimento de um programa para geração de mapas de curvas residuais e aplicação a processos de destilação azeotropica e extrativa
Despite the development of new separation processes, the predominant unit operation used in chemical industries is, still, distillation, especially for large-scale separation of non-ideal mixtures. Many papers have dedicated special attention to the study of azeotropic mixtures, looking for the development of design and synthesis tools. Residue curve maps pl
