This work presents a reactive distillation column for the catalytic disproportionation of trichlorosilane to silane which includes three consecutive reversible reactions. This reaction system is however characterized by a large distinction in the boiling points of the components, which make the reactive distillation extremely favored. Nevertheless, the normal reactive distillation column posses...

The structure of thermally coupled distillation systems offers several control challenges arising from the transfer of vapor (or liquid) streams between columns. In particular, the presence of recycle streams for coupled schemes has led to the notion that control problems might be expected during the operation of these systems, in contrast to the rather well-known behavior of conventional disti...

companion with genetic algorithms proved that they can accurately predict fractions quality shifts, reproducing the results of the standard laboratory analysis. Simple knowledge extraction method from neural network model built was also performed. Genetic algorithms can be successfully utilized in efficient training of large neural networks and finding their optimal structures.

Petroleum is an indispensable chemical product in industrial production and daily life. The hydrocarbon molecules petroleum are important raw materials the organic industry. hydrocarbons currently used industry usually obtained by fractional distillation of petroleum, which not only consumes more energy, but has poor separation selectivity for some hydrocarbons. Adsorption technology many advan...

Background Hydro-distillation (HD) method is a traditional technique which is used in most industrial companies. Microwave-assisted Hydro-distillation (MAHD) is an advanced HD technique utilizing a microwave oven in the extraction process. Methods In this research, MAHD of essential oils from the aerial parts (leaves) of rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis L.) was studied and the results were co...

The present work elaborates the process design methodology for the evaluation of the distillation systems based on the economic, exergetic and environmental point of view, the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The methodology proposes the Heat Integrated Pressure Swing Distillation Sequence (HiPSDS) is economic and reduces the GHG emissions than the conventional Extractive Distillation Sequence (...

The compostion of the oils from flower and leaf of Achillea mellifolium L. subsp. mellifolium were collected during the flowering priod from Lar area to Damavand montain, altitude 3400 m in July 2003. The essential oils obtained by different methods of distillation (steam distillation and hydro-distillation), the percentage of oils for flower and leaf by steam distillation were 0.2 and 0.05% an...

the genus boswellia is one of the 17 genera belonging to burseraceae family. in this study resin of boswellia carteri birdwoodcollected or purchased from tehram herbal market as a food and non-food for chemical analysis. the essential oils of the resins of boswellia carteri birdwoodobtained by different methods of distillation (water distillation, steam distillation and hydro-steam distillation...

Control properties of thermally coupled distillation arrangements for the separation of multicomponent mixtures were compared to those of conventional distillation sequences. Seven thermally coupled schemes were investigated. The preliminary steady – state design of complex schemes was obtained by starting from a conventional distillation sequences and then optimizing for minimum energy consump...
