Currently the typical way that crude oil is processed involves a fractional distillation column, in which heated crude oil is separated into the various hydrocarbon compounds using distinct boiling… ...

In this study, we address the Dow data challenge by predicting distillation column impurity levels using advanced machine learning. Our goal is to surpass the accuracy of existing Dow process models ...

Pot still bourbons are increasingly common in the craft whiskey world, but how do they differ from so many classic Kentucky bourbon whiskeys?

Commonly encountered distillation column malfunctions such as collapsed tray, weeping, flooding and foaming were simulated in the two prototype distillation columns and scanned. The industrial ...

The push for fewer emissions and greater profitability are driving the development of more efficient distillation column internals. Izak Nieuwoudt, Neil Sandford, and Pat Quotson look at the ...

PVDF in the column The Kynar PVDF bubble caps are part of bubble-cap-tray assemblies (Figure 3) used in a distillation column for low-temperature and low-pressure (P/T) applications. In bubble cap ...
