Distillation has historically been the dominant method for separating mixtures in the chemical process industry. Despite its flexibility and widespread use, it remains energy-intensive. Yet, it is irreplaceable and set to remain the separation technology of choice for decades ahead. Meeting the demands of an energy-conscious, sustainability-driven society requires radical innovation: not just incremental optimization, but transformative new concepts and integrated process designs.
Advanced Distillation Technologies (2nd Edition) provides the reader with a deep and broad insight into advanced intensified separations, covering both well-established and emerging technologies from conceptual design through to practical implementation. This fully revised and expanded edition includes: - Fundamentals of distillation (thermodynamics, VLE, distillation column analysis)
- Design and control of distillation (optimization, heat integration, and multivariable control)
- Economic and sustainability assessment (cost estimation, LCA, sustainability metrics)
- Azeotropic fluid separations (azeotropic, extractive, and pressure-swing distillation)
- Reactive distillation (design, modeling, equipment, feasibility, and advanced RD variants)
- Dividing-wall column (configurations, design, control, and multi-product applications)
- Heat pump assisted distillation (all major heat pump types and a selection scheme)
- Heat-integrated distillation column (HIDiC design, construction options, and retrofit)
- Cyclic distillation (equipment, modeling, design algorithms, and industrial applications)
- High-gravity (HiGee) distillation (rotating packed-bed equipment, modeling, industrial use)
- Membrane-based distillation (membrane & osmotic distillation, pervaporation)
- Special distillation processes (short-path, solar, microwave-/ultrasound-assisted distillation)
Containing abundant examples and industrial case studies, this 2nd edition provides a unique and comprehensive resource tackling the most advanced distillation technologies, effectively integrating sustainability assessment, process intensification, and novel energy-efficient approaches for the modern chemical engineer.
