Reactive Distillation Design and ControlAuthor(s): William L. Luyben, Cheng-Ching Yu\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: John Wiley & Sons Inc, United States\nImprint: Wiley-AIChE\nISBN-13: 9780470226124, 978-0470226124\nSynopsis\nReactive distillation has economical and environmental advantages\n\n Reactive distillation is a breakthrough process innovation with numerous applications in the petroleum and chemical industries. In systems with the appropriate chemistry and vaporliquid phase equilibrium, it combines the reaction and separation operations, which reduces energy and capital costs and environmental impact. After an overview of the fundamentals, limitations, and scope of reactive distillation, Reactive Distillation Design and Control:\n\nUses rigorous models for steady-state design and dynamic analysis of different types of reactive distillation columns\nQuantitatively compares the economics of reactive distillation columns with conventional multi-unit processes\nGoes beyond tr.
