Total Reflux Operation of Multivessel Batch Distillation for Separation of Binary Mixtures
Multivessel batch distillation (MVBD) is mainly used to separate mixtures with more than two components. In this article, a new operation mode with MVBD is proposed for separation of binary mixtures under total reflux. A mathematic model is setup for the simulation. The proposed operation policy and the regular operation with constant reflux are compared theoretically and experimentally. The results show that the new operation mode has great advantages in time saving and operation flexibility. MVBD presents great potential for separation with high efficiency.
