A novel heterogeneous extractive distillation process is considered for separating the azeotropic mixture chloroform-methanol in a batch rectifying column, including for the first time an experimental validation of the process. Heterogeneous heavy entrainer water is selected inducing an unstable ternary heteroazeotrope and a saddle binary heteroazeotrope with chloroform (ternary diagram class 2.1-2b). Unlike the well-known heterogeneous azeotropic distillation process and thanks to continuous water feeding at the column top, the saddle binary heteroazeotrope chloroform-water is obtained at the column top, condensed and further split into the liquid-liquid decanter where the chloroform-rich phase is drawn as distillate. First, feasibility analysis is carried out by using a simplified differential model in the extractive section for determining the proper range of the entrainer flowrate and the reflux ratio. The operating conditions and reflux policy are validated by rigorous simulation with ProSim Batch Column® where technical features of a bench scale distillation column have been described. Six reproducible experiments are run in the bench scale column matching the simulated operating conditions with two sequentially increasing reflux ratio values. Simulation and experiments agree well. With an average molar purity higher than 99%, more than 85% of recovery yield was obtained for chloroform and methanol. 相似文献

Our former method for the assessment of the feasibility of batch extractive distillation (usually performed in a rectifier with a heavy entrainer) was extended to the case where a light entrainer is fed continuously into a rectifier or a stripper. The method is based on the calculation of the vessel path and possible composition profiles of the column sections. The method is demonstrated for both configurations on the examples of separation of minimum boiling point azeotropic mixtures. For the rectifier the most important conclusions were also experimentally verified. 相似文献

The presence of azeotropes in multicomponent mixtures complicates the design of batch distillation separation processes widely used in pharmaceutical and speciality chemical industries. Most of those processes include the use of a homogeneous entrainer to ease the separation. We describe novel methods to break azeotropes using an entrainer that is partially miscible with one of the initial binary mixture components. We depict some of the advantages of heterogeneous batch distillation processes: more design alternatives for the separation of an azeotropic binary mixture than with homogeneous batch distillation, batch distillation boundary crossing thanks to a controlled reflux of the entrainer-rich phase, simplified distillation sequences as a consequence of less distillation tasks. Three examples based on the separation of non-ideal azeotropic or close boiling point binary mixtures through heterogeneous batch distillation are simulated using a commercial batch distillation package. Experiments validate the simulated separation of a minimum boiling azeotropic mixture. 相似文献

研究了乙醇脱水塔内的两相共沸精馏和汽液液三相共沸精馏过程。利用Aspen plus模拟软件对乙醇脱水塔内4种工况的精馏曲线、共沸剂浓度分布、回流量和再沸器能耗进行了分析比较。结果表明,苯做共沸剂时,脱水塔内两相共沸精馏和汽液液三相共沸精馏的精馏曲线、共沸剂浓度分布、回流量和再沸器能耗相近,脱水塔精馏曲线都跨越了精馏边界,并且共沸剂在塔内大多数板上都有较高浓度分布。而环己烷做共沸剂时,两相共沸精馏工况和汽液液三相共沸精馏工况条件下的脱水塔内精馏曲线、共沸剂浓度分布、回流量和再沸器能耗有较大差别。汽液液三相共沸精馏工况条件下,环己烷在塔内大多数板上有较高浓度分布,起到较好的脱水作用,而两相共沸精馏工况条件下脱水塔内共沸剂仅分布在塔顶几块塔板上,塔内多数板上没有起到共沸剂作用。 相似文献

In this research it is demonstrated that, due to the similarities between Entrainer-based Reactive Distillation and azeotropic distillation, the same selection rules can be applied to select a suitable entrainer. From a list of suitable entrainers for the azeotropic distillation of isopropanol and water, cyclohexane and isopropyl acetate are chosen. Residue curve maps, simulations of the distillation section of the column, and simulations of the total Entrainer-based Reactive Distillation concept show that both can be used as an entrainer in Entrainer-based Reactive Distillation. Whether the Entrainer-based Reactive Distillation concept will be feasible, depends strongly on the kinetics of the reaction. 相似文献

Mixture containing acetic acid and water does not form azeotrope. However, because of tangent pinch on the pure water end, it is customary in industry to add an entrainer into this mixture to aid the separation via heterogeneous azeotropic distillation. When the production scale is relatively small, it is more beneficial to run the acetic acid dehydration in batch mode. In Chien et al. [Chien, I. L., K. L. Zeng, H. Y. Chao, and J. H. Liu, “Design and Control of Acetic Acid Dehydration System via Heterogeneous Azeotropic Distillation,” Chemical Engineering Science, 59, 4547 (2004)], a suitable entrainer for acetic acid dehydration operating in continuous mode was found to be iso-butyl acetate. This paper demonstrates that although iso-butyl acetate is a good entrainer for continuous heterogeneous azeotropic distillation system, it is not suitable in heteroazeotropic batch system for acetic acid dehydration. Instead, the performances of two other acetates are compared for the suggestion of better entrainer in batch operation. An extremely simple batch operating sequence for acetic acid dehydration will be demonstrated via dynamic simulation. The proposed batch operation is very robust in terms of the particular values chosen for the operating variables. This proposed batch operation gives very similar separation performance comparing to a multivessel operation and requires less process, instrumentation, and control equipments. 相似文献

Synthesis of heterogeneous batch distillation is discussed, which aims at splitting azeotropic mixtures by adding an entrainer partially miscible with one of the initial binary mixture components. Key operational parameters are identified such as the amount of entrainer added in the ternary feed, the reflux policy, and the vapor line position by examples. Synthesis and operation are less straightforward for heterogeneous batch distillation than those for the homogeneous case, but offer many advantages: more design alternatives, simplified distillation sequences, a lower consumption of entrainer, and a crossing of distillation boundaries by the still path. Feasibility is assessed using simplified modeling and confirmed using a commercial batch process simulator package. Synthesis expectations and simulated results are verified throughout bench-plant experiments for the separation of the acetonitrile—water mixture using acrylonitrile as a light heterogeneous entrainer. 相似文献

Extractive distillation(ED) is one of the most promising approaches for the separation of the azeotropic or closeboiling mixtures in the chemical industry. The purpose of this paper is to provide a broad overview of the recent development of key aspects in the ED process involving conceptual design, solvent selection, and separation strategies. To obtain the minimum entrainer feed flow rate and reflux ratio for the ED process, the conceptual design of azeotropic mixture separation based on a topological analysis via thermodynamic feasibility insights involving residue curve maps, univolatility lines, and unidistribution curves is presented. The method is applicable to arbitrary multicomponent mixtures and allows direct screening of design alternatives. The determination of a suitable solvent is one of the key steps to ensure an effective and economical ED process. Candidate entrainers can be obtained from heuristics or literature studies while computer aided molecular design(CAMD) has superiority in efficiency and reliability. To achieve optimized extractive distillation systems, a brief review of evaluation method for both entrainer design and selection through CAMD is presented. Extractive distillation can be operated either in continuous extractive distillation(CED) or batch extractive distillation(BED), and both modes have been well-studied depending on the advantages in flexibility and low capital costs. To improve the energy efficiency, several configurations and technological alternatives can be used for both CED and BED depending on strategies and main azeotropic feeds. The challenge and chance of the further ED development involving screening the best potential solvents and exploring the energy-intensive separation strategies are discussed aiming at promoting the industrial application of this environmentally friendly separation technique. 相似文献

Acetic acid dehydration is an important operation in the production of aromatic acid, such as terephthalic acid or in the manufacture of cellulose acetate. Although acetic acid and water does not form azeotrope, but using simple distillation to separate these two components is not practical. The reason is because the system has tangent pinch on the pure water end, thus it is more customary in industry to use an entrainer via a heterogeneous azeotropic distillation column system for the separation. In this study, a suitable entrainer is selected from three candidate acetates through rigorous steady-state simulation of this system. Optimum process design and operating condition are determined to keep high-purity bottom acetic acid composition and also keep a small acetic acid loss through top aqueous draw. Furthermore, the overall control strategy of this column system is proposed to hold both bottom and top product specifications in spite of feed rate and feed composition load disturbances. The proposed overall control strategy is very simple requiring only one tray temperature control loop inside the heterogeneous azeotropic column. 相似文献

Tert‐butyl alcohol and water form an azeotrope at normal pressure. Simple distillation cannot be used to separate these two components. In this article, a systematic study of the separation of tert‐butyl alcohol–water mixtures with an entrainer by heterogeneous azeotropic batch distillation was performed. Based upon the thermodynamic behavior of the ternary mixtures, cyclohexane was chosen as the entrainer. It formed ternary and binary heterogeneous azeotropes with the original components. The process feasibility analysis was validated by using rigorous simulation with chemical process simulation software – HYSYS Plant 2.2 and DISTIL 4.1. Simulation results were then corroborated in a batch experimental column for the selected entrainer. 相似文献

This paper studies the separation of an ethyl acetate–isooctane mixture by heterogeneous azeotropic distillation in a batch rectifying column. An initial list of 60 candidates was studied but only methanol and acetonitrile were obtained as potential heterogeneous entrainers. These entrainers form a low boiling heterogeneous azeotrope with isooctane. Experimental verification of the miscibility gap with isooctane was performed at 25 °C for each entrainer giving a smaller region for methanol than for acetonitrile. Feasibility of the heterogeneous azeotropic batch distillation was carried out experimentally in a laboratory batch distillation column having 44 theoretical equilibrium stages and using a high reflux ratio. Several distillate fractions were taken as a function of the temperature at the top of the column. For both methanol and acetonitrile, the main fraction was defined by the condensed vapor providing a liquid–liquid split of the isooctane/entrainer heteroazeotrope into the decanter. Ethyl acetate impurity was detected in both decanted phases, but in much lower amount when using acetonitrile as entrainer. The process with acetonitrile also resulted in a shorter operating time and higher purity and recovery yield of isooctane as the main distillate product. Pure ethyl acetate remained into the boiler at the end of each process. 相似文献

Batch distillation is an efficient unit operation which allows the separation of a multicomponent mixture into its pure constituents in a single column. However, the separation of azeotropic mixtures by distillation is quite difficult because at the azeotrope the liquid and the gas have the same composition and, in turn, the driving force for distillation disappears. A systematic presentation of batch distillation processes for the separation of binary azeotropic mixtures using an entrainer is given. 相似文献

Extractive distillation is one of the most attractive approaches for separating azeotropic mixtures. Few contributions have been reported to design an extractive distillation for separating maximum‐boiling azeotropes and no systematic approaches for entrainer screening have been presented. A systematic approach to design of two‐column extractive distillation for separating azeotropes with heavy entrainers has been proposed. A thermodynamic feasibility analysis for azeotropes with potential heavy entrainers was first conducted. Then, five important properties are selected for entrainer evaluation. Fuzzy logic and develop membership functions to calculate attribute values of selected properties have been used. An overall indicator for entrainer evaluation is proposed and a ranking list is generated. Finally, the top five entrainers from the ranking list have been selected and use process optimization techniques to further evaluate selected entrainers and generate an optimal design. The capability of the proposed method is illustrated using the separation of acetone–chloroform azeotropes with five potential entrainers. © 2015 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 61: 3898–3910, 2015 相似文献

Modeling and optimization work was performed using benzene as an entrainer to obtain a nearly pure anhydrous isopropyl alcohol
product from dilute aqueous IPA mixture through an azeotropic distillation process. NRTL liquid activity coefficient model
and PRO/II with PROVISION 6.01, a commercial process simulator, were used to simulate the overall azeotropic distillation
process. We determined the total reboiler heat duties as an objective function and the concentration of IPA at concentrator
top as a manipulated variable. As a result, 38.7 mole percent of IPA at concentrator top gave the optimum value that minimized
the total reboiler heat duties of the three distillation columns. 相似文献
