Distillation remains a backbone technology in the chemical process industry despite its historically high energy consumption. In recent years, research has focused on improving the thermal efficiency ...

What if the most powerful artificial intelligence models could teach their smaller, more efficient counterparts everything they know—without sacrificing performance? This isn’t science fiction; it’s ...

For centuries, distillation has been used to separate the components of liquid solutions through extremely selective heating and cooling. Numerous instruments are used to control the differing ...

Following installation of a new air-cooled condenser as part of its crude distillation unit's preflash tower overhead, a US Midwestern refinery began producing off-spec light naphtha that led to ...

IN his preface Prof. Young says that he wrote this book in the hope that the solution of the difficulties of fractional distillation might be rendered easier. He has written an eminently practical ...
