Heat-Pump Assisted Distillation Column Using Benzene-Toluene Mixture. Energy Management

      Аннотация: The aim of this book is to investigate theoretically the energy management in heat pump assisted distillation column using binary mixture. These distillation columns lower the total costs involved in the process by decreasing the requirement of hot utilities and cold utilities. The incorporation of heat pump necessitates critical analysis as the addition of several new devices require additional capital costs, thus challenging economic viability of the modified configuration. This book includes the determination of hot and cold utilities by graphical method as well as the simulation of distillation column. Economic analysis of the heat pump assisted distillation configuration has been compared to that of conventional distillation column.
