Sm. Mahajani, Design of reactive distillation columns for multicomponent kinetically controlled reactive systems, CHEM ENG SC, 54(10), 1999, pp. 1425-1430
dA design method for a reactive distillation column for the multi-component
reactive system is developed and illustrated. The method is based on the t
heory of equilibrium and kinetic fixed points in the distillation map. The
proposed graphical presentation helps in extrapolating the design aspects t
hat have been developed in the earlier studies on this subject. An example
of a four component system is presented to illustrate the proposed design m
ethod. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
