Abstract: | Complex multicomponent mixtures such as petroleum fractions, shale oils, coal-derived liquids etc. are usually characterized by continuous distribution functions which, for example, may be obtained from true boiling point distillations. Current methods for separation calculations, however, are based on the flows of discrete components. Hence, to apply these methods the continuous distributions traditionally are split into a number of pseudo-components. This is a crude and arbitrary procedure. Based on earlier work, the present paper shows how to perform distillation calculations for complex multicomponent mixtures by using the continuous distributions directly without splitting into pseudo-components. |
