PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Project is to design and to develop a new unit able to separate two solvents (alcohol and ketone) mixed with salts and water with a 99.9% specification on purity.
OUR METHODOLOGY
The methodology developed by Processium was based on:
- Issue a thermodynamics diagnosis.
- Process synthesis to propose processes based on pressure swing distillation, liquid-liquid extraction, extractive distillation and azeotropic distillation.
- Sizing of the best process.
- Laboratory and pilot scale validation of process sizing.
- Production of samples.
RESULTS
On the basis of technical package issued by Processium, the new unit had been built is still running.
