Problems encountered in the design of ethanol and water distillation columns
Thread Content
For the design of ethanol-water distillation columns, when calculating the column diameter, it is necessary to determine the average densities of the vapor and liquid phases in the rectification section and the stripping section. The manual provides some rules for mixing to calculate the density of mixed liquids – can these be used? Additionally, those algorithms can be found in those manuals. I’m working on a course project, and my teacher doesn’t allow me to use textbooks; he says I need to rely on authoritative sources, with clear references for each algorithm. I’m a beginner, so I hope my fellow learners can offer me some guidance! :)
Running into the same problem; great stuff, worth it!
