Carbon membranes for efficient water-ethanol separation.
We demonstrate, on the basis of molecular dynamics simulations, the possibility of an efficient water-ethanol separation using nanoporous carbon membranes, namely, carbon nanotube membranes, nanoporous graphene sheets, and multilayer graphene membranes. While these carbon membranes are in general permeable to both pure liquids, they exhibit a counter-intuitive "self-semi-permeability" to water ...
متن کاملOn-chip Microscale Distillation for Acetone-water Separation
A silicon-based microscale distillation chip was fabricated consisting of a micro-channel 600 μm in width and 40 cm in length. Micropillars were incorporated in the micro-channel to direct liquid flow from the cooled to the heated end by capillarity. A feed of a 19 mol% acetone-water mixture was separated to 95+ mol% acetone in the distillate and 11 mol% in the bottom stream. This distillation ...
متن کاملEthanol distillation: the fundamentals
Certain fundamental principles are common to all distilling systems. Modern distillation systems are multi-stage, continuous, countercurrent, vapor-liquid contacting systems that operate within the physical laws that state that different materials boil at different temperatures. Represented in Figure 1 is a typical distillation tower that could be employed to separate an ideal mixture. Such a s...
متن کاملDynamic Behavior of Alternative Separation Processes for Ethanol Dehydration by Extractive Distillation
Ethanol is attracting the attention of researchers because of its potential in reducing the dependence on crude oil together with the possible reduction in the pollution associated with the combustion process. The ethanol dehydration process is significant in terms of its production cost. Recently, new distillation sequences have been proposed for the separation of pure ethanol from the ferment...
متن کاملSeparation of butanol from acetone-butanol-ethanol fermentation by a hybrid extraction-distillation process
The alternative fuel butanol can be produced via acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) fermentation from renewable resources, i.e. biomass. Expensive feedstocks and the high costs for the separation of ABE from the dilute fermentation broth in the downstream processing have so far prohibited the industrial-scale production of bio-butanol. The low productivities and butanol yields of ABE batch fermentat...
