How to control liquid-liquid separation during chemical production processes
Thread Content
Dear netizens, how can liquid-liquid separation be controlled during large-scale chemical production? We hope you can provide answers and relevant P&ID diagrams. Thank you! I am very eager to learn*learn*. In other words, how to achieve automated time control in DCS.
This generally requires determining the appropriate separation conditions based on the phase diagram of liquid-liquid separation. There are several types of liquid-liquid separation; it’s not just the simple separation between oil and water. In cases where the substances are partially miscible, this phenomenon is related to temperature and composition ratios, and analysis requires the use of phase diagrams.
There are many factors that lead to stratification
For a simple two-phase stratification process, how can automation be achieved? What methods can be used? So far, all I’ve seen is manual operation for the stratification process
Could someone with expertise share a P&ID related to the automatic control of the separation between the organic layer and the aqueous layer? I’d like to take a look and learn from it. Thank you very much!
