Distillation Design is a book which provides complete coverage of the design of industrial distillation columns for the petroleum refining, chemical and petrochemical , natural gas processing, pharmaceutical and alcohol distilling industries. It has been a classical chemical engineering textbook since it was first published in February of 1992.
Subjects covered in the book
- Vapor-liquid equilibrium(VLE): Vapor-liquid K values, relative volatilities, ideal and non-ideal systems, phase diagrams, calculating bubble points and dewpoints
- Key fractional distillation concepts: theoretical stages, x-y diagrams, multicomponent distillation, column composition and temperature profiles
- Process design and Process optimization: minimum reflux and minimum stages, optimum reflux, short-cut methods, feed entry location
- Rigorous calculation methods: Bubble point method, sum rates method, numerical methods (Newton-Raphson technique), inside out method, relaxation method, other methods
- Batch distillation: Simple distillation, constant reflux, varying reflux, time and boilup requirments
- Tray design and tray efficiency: distillation tray types, tray capacities, tray hydraulic parameters, tray sizing and determination of column diameter, point and tray efficiencies, tray efficiency prediction and scaleup
- Packing design and packing efficiency: packing types, packing hydraulics and capacities, determination of packing efficiency by transfer unit method and by HETP method, packed column sizing
