Mixture of low
relative volatility is
separated by
extractive
distilation. The 3rd
party solvent
added interact wid
all components of
mixture thus alter
relative volatility
and make
separation easier.
Solvent selection
is important.

Answer / dinesh patil

Some of the Liquid componets (suppose A & B) are difficult
to seperate under normal tempreture & pressure or due to
low boiling point difference (when the mixture is
Azotropic) So requirment of extractive distillation raise.

In extractive distillation solvent component (Suppose C)is
added in such a way that it preferably extract only one of
component among A or B and after ward distillation
operation can be done.

Answer / ravi

Extractive distillation is defined as distillation in the
presence of a miscible, high boiling, relatively
non-volatile component, the solvent, that forms no azeotrope
with the other components in the mixture.

Answer / muthukumar

when feed supplied goes to reboiler section we call it as
extractive distillation and here the third component is known
as solvent

Answer / muthukumar

Extractive distillation is one where the excess feed goes to
Re-boiler section.

Answer / rajesh kumar bhagat

In this we add a entrainer, who alter the relative volatality
of one component(minor component)of azeotropic mixture and we
distilled that component out. and major component with
entrainer will be the bottom product.

Question 63 – Autocad computer program is used to draw a pipe that is used to transport natural gases for processing. Actual length of the pipe is 10 metres. The pipe has cross sectional area of circle in shape with measured circumference of s = 3 metres. (a) If 10 units are used to represent the actual length of the pipe in computerised engineering drawing, find the diameter of the pipe, d that will be shown in the engineering drawing. (b) If one unit in the program equals to 1 centimetre, find the scale used in the computer program.

UNIT OPERATION - EXAMPLE 9.4 : Acetone and ethanol are separated using a distillation column with a partial condenser and partial reboiler. An equimolar, sub-cooled liquid feed enters at 100 kmol / hr and condenses 1 mole of vapor for every 6 moles of feed. The separation requires a distillate vapor that is 95 mol % acetone and bottoms liquid that is 5 mol % acetone. The reflux is returned from the condenser to the column as a saturated liquid and the operation is run at (L / V) = 1.4 * (L / V) min. Assume constant overflow conditions. (a) Feed operating line is y = [ q / (q - 1) ] x - z / (q - 1) where z = 0.5 for equimolar liquid mixture of 2 components, q = (L'- L) / F where L' = L + F + (F / 6) for condensation of 1 mole of vapor / 6 moles of feed. What is y = f(x)? (b) The rectifying operating line is y = (L / V) x + (D / V) (xd) where (L / V) min goes through the points A (0.95, 0.95) and B (0.53, 0.69), V = L + D. What is y = f(x)? Let xd = 0.95. (L / V) min is the slope of the 2 points A and B.
