Simulation of ethanol extractive distillation with mixed glycols as separating agent

Abstract: -Extractive distillation is an alternative for ethanol dehydration processes that has been shown to be more effective than azeotropic distillation and, in close proximity, to be very competitive against the process that uses adsorption with molecular sieves. Glycols have been shown to be the most effective solvents in extractive distillation, mainly ethylene glycol and glycerol. In this work, an extractive distillation column was simulated with the Aspen Plus software platform, using the RadFrac module for dis… Show more

“…Three azeotropic and extractive distillation configurations were selected from the works reported in the literature [7,16,9,2]. For the two dehydrating distillation processes, the selected configurations were the conventional column and two other integrated configurations which perform relatively very well in term of product purity, throughputs and energy consumption.…”

“…distillation and dehydration units). In the area of energy requirement several researchers worked to reduce energy consumption of either distillation stand alone or hybrid units containing azeotropic, extractive or pervaporation unit [1,6,7,8,2]. The hybrid configurations of distillation with three extractive sequences were compared based on energy requirement and second law efficiency on the basis of similar feed and product specifications [9].…”

“…A simulação da destilação extrativa com glicerol foi baseada no trabalho de Gil et al (2014), conforme mostra Figura 2, sendo modificados o número de pratos e pratos de alimentação e as especificações de topo e fundo para se obter o conjunto de colunas que gerem um menor custo para esta carga específica. Nesta simulação, as especificações de projeto foram: composição de mássica etanol topo da C-01 de 99,9%, composição mássica de etanol no fundo da C-01 de 0,0065% e composição mássica de glicerol no fundo da C-02 de 99,99%…”

“…Um dos desafios para a implementação da extração de óleo de soja com etanol é justamente a recuperação do etanol. Alguns processos de purificação do etanol já são conhecidos: a destilação alcoólica simples, obtendo-se etanol hidratado ou também através da destilação extrativa com etileno glicol (Li & Bai, 2012) e glicerol (Matugi, 2013;Gil et al, 2014).…”
