Overview

• Questions from last week??• Review rigorous methods / RADFRAC• Multicomponent systems:o Residue curveso DSTWU / RADFRAC o Rules of thumb

• Complex (Enhanced) distillation• Column internals• Batch distillation

• Usually for small capacity systems

• 1 column handle multi-”campaigns”

• Produce sample new products• Batch upstream processes• Feed contains solids/foulants

Multistage Batch Distillation

33

Modes of operation:• Constant reflux rate or ratio• xD varies with time• easily implemented (flow sensors)• Relatively simple and cost effective

• Constant distillate composition• R or D varies with time• Requires fast response composition sensors• Sensors might not be available or only

justified for larger batch systems• Optimal control mode• xD and R varied with time• Designed to:

Minimize operation time Maximize amount of distillate Maximize profit

• More complex control scheme
