Distillation

Distillation is a method of separating the components of a solution which depends upon the distribution of the substances between a gas and a liquid phase,apllied to cases where all components are present in both phases.

Raoults law

For an ideal solution, the equilibrium partial pressure p of a constituent at a fixed temperature equals the product of its vapor pressure p when pure at this temperature and its mole fraction in the liquid.this is raoults law. PA* = PAx

Flash vaporization

It is a single stage operation where in a liquid mixture is partially vaporized. The vapor allowed coming to equilibrium with the residual liquid and liquid phases are separated and removed from the apparatus. It may be batch wise or continuous.

Minimum reflux ratio

The minimum reflux ratio Rm is the minimum ratio which will require an infinite number of trays for the separation desired and it corresponds to the minimum reboiler heat load and condenser cooling load for the separation.

Optimum flux ratio

Optimum flux ratio corresponds to a situation when the total cost for a distillation process is minimum.a minimum reflux ratio , the no. of plates in the column approaches infinity with increase in reflux ratio the no. of plates decrease the minimum at total reflux.

Partial condenser

When a partial condenser or dephlegmator is used the liquid reflux does not have the same composition as the overhead product.

McCabe Thiele method

1.Molar flow of vapor and liquid in the rectifying and stripping section remain constant.
2. Molar latent heat of the two components are equal.
3. Sensible heat changes for vapor and liquid are considered negligible
4. Reflux is a saturated liquid
5. Heat of mixing of normal liquid is taken as equal to zero

Azeotropic distillation

If the relative volatility of a binary mixture is very low, the continuous rectification of the mixture to give nearly pure products will require high reflux ratios and correspondingly high heat requirements . hence a third component entrainer is used in this distillation

Extractive distillation

This is a multi component distillation method similar in purpose to azeotropic distillation. to a binary mixture which is difficult or impossible to separate by ordinary means a third component termed as solvent is added which alters the relative volatility of the original constituents thus permitting the separation.
