Extractive Distillation to separate Acetone-Water Mixture in Aspen HYSYS - Lecture # 23

[@muhammadyasir9056]

Explained in detail. Great work 👏

[@aspenchemchannel]

Thank you for the appreciation.

[@mihirpatel7091]

very helpful

[@ashlim5822]

Great video. Made a chemical engineering student sane after watching it

[@icedmocha5264]

helpful. Can we use shortcut distillation to get an initial estimate for the number of stages for the rigorous simulation of the extractor?

[@aspenchemchannel]

Yes. We can use it as well.

[@icedmocha5264]

@@aspenchemchannel Thank you for the answer. Trying it now.

[@bhoomimehta2594]

hello sir it was helpful. can you please share same extractive distillation process for ethanol water using des as solvent

[@aspenchemchannel]

Sure.

[@shyamalpatel627]

dear sir, where did you find these data? could you share the resource from where you found these data?

Thanks for video, sir. Sir, if I want to sizing extraction distillation column, is it the same way with step in lecture #21? Thanks in advance

[@icedmocha5264]

How do you know how much solvent to use for liquid liquid extraction?

[@aspenchemchannel]

Usually, at first, we use the same flowrate as that of the feed. Then using case-study tool, we can optimize the use of solvent to achieve required purity.

Great vid. Could you do an exercise on heterogeneous azeotropic distillation?

[@nanayyaw622]

How I determine the number of stages of an extractive distillation column to dehydrate ethanol using ethylene glycol as solvent manually?

[@GeniusEnima]

Hi Sir, thakns for the very instructive videos.
I have a question for you, when using a recycle loop why did you linked its outlet with the first solvent stream instead of creating its own new outlet and mix it through the mixer with the initial solvent of 150 kg/h ?

[@icedmocha5264]

I tried this but my recycle stream doesn't converge. The error given by hysys is that pressure reversal was detected in the main tower

Thank you bro very clear

Thanks for the video and for effort!

Thank you.
