Question: Principle of methanol thawing in the (DMTO) olefin separation unit: Since the melting point of methanol is -97.8 degrees, mixing it with water lowers the freezing point of water, which in turn reduces the initial temperature at which hydrocarbon-water compounds form. Moreover, methanol is highly soluble in water, so it flows out of the system! Note: The answers will be released automatically in two days!
Alcohols have a melting point of -97.8 degrees; when mixed with water, it lowers the freezing point of water, thereby reducing the initial temperature at which hydrocarbon-water compounds are formed. Moreover, alcohols are highly soluble in water

The location of freezing blockage is determined by comparing the pressure differences across various sections of the tower with the normal or design values; methanol is then injected above the location of freezing blockage to thaw it
Methanol has a melting point of -97.8°C. Its mixture with water results in a very low freezing point, and it is highly soluble in water, which causes the hydrocarbon-water mixture to melt and be removed from the system.

Since methanol has a low freezing point, under the operating conditions of the (DMTO) olefin separation unit, adding methanol serves as an antifreeze effect due to the low-temperature separation process.
