Descripción
Design and Simulation of Conventional and Complex Distillation Systems serves as a comprehensive guide to the design of conventional and complex distillation processes with a unique combination of conceptual design methods, validations via rigorous simulations, including visual descriptions and videos of the simulation tasks. This book provides a comprehensive overview of both conventional and complex distillation systems for the separation of multicomponent mixtures. It covers the fundamental principles, design methodologies, and simulation techniques required to effectively analyze and optimize these systems. This book combines conceptual design methods for different types of distillation systems with the validation steps that follow by using rigorous simulations, as well as the inclusion of detailed explanations and illustrative examples throughout to explain all concepts explored in each chapter. This book will be an invaluable guide chemical engineering students, researchers, and professionals who seek to deepen their understanding of distillation processes and enhance their knowledge to design and simulate efficient and modern distillation systems.

Puntos claves
- Offers practical, step-by-step design methods and calculations, making complex concepts accessible and applicable for students and professionals
- Applies basic concepts to distillation processes provide the basis for the development of design methods. The applications are based on solid distillation principles and evolve from conventional to complex structures
- Includes detailed guidance on using Aspen Plus for simulations, the book bridges the gap between theoretical design and practical validation
- Contains real-world case studies, covering key topics such as implementation of dividing-wall columns, selection of solvents for azeotropic distillation systems, implementation of sustainable distillation practices, and the optimization of reactive distillation columns for biodiesel production
