Reflux ratio issue
Thread Content
I read a paper that states the reflux rate of the lower alcohol is between >0 and 200 moles, with a preferred range of 0.1 to 120 moles per mole of the input alkali alcohates of the lower alcohol. What does this mean? How is this reflux ratio calculated? How can the complex reflux ratio be converted into the regular one? Thank you all
Per mole of alkali metal alkoxide added to the lower alcohols, the reflux rate of the lower alcohols is between 0 and 200 moles (preferably 0.1 to 120 moles).
Thank you so much! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
The answer is given on the 2nd floor. OP, this is a patent; it discusses research, and the reflux ratio mentioned is not calculated. The patent holder certainly knows what the reflux ratio is, but he only provided a range; if those who wish to achieve similar results through research want to do so, they should conduct experiments within the range of 0.1 to 120 moles.
