Yes it is a distillation column. The column operates just above atmospheric and the stream is 95% water with the balance being oxygenates.
We might not be able to use pumps and therefore the 20bar driving force will need to be sufficient to overcome the resistance in the line.
However we will...
I need to reduce the pressure in an existing 1" line to 1bar before it enters a column (feed). The source of the stream is at 20 bar. We have a iso container available to use as a buffer.
Are there standard reducers available?
I am undertaking laboratory pilot study. I need to calculate the efficiency of the packing.
How does one determine the efficiency from the material balances?
I was not referring to any particular method. I received a document and noticed that the lab had set the gc response factors for the components in a gasoline blend to unity. Why are the response factors set to 1.
