ABSTRACT

Distillation is one of the major separation operations used for separation of light compounds from the solution or mixtures. This operation is energy intensive and energy requirements are quite high. Efficient and effective use of the operation depends on efficiency and economy. Almost all the separation processes have some advantages and disadvantages. In many cases it is possible to combine more than one operation and minimize drawbacks and maximize the positive aspects. Distillation can be coupled with membrane operations, extraction, and solar energy in order to make it effective. Many investigators have carried out investigations on these aspects. Also modeling and simulation for distillation column is widely discussed topic. Current review summarizes research and studies on these aspects.

Key words: Energy, separation, azeotrope, binary distillation, parameters.
