Separation of methanol and methyl acetate by pressure swing distillation

LI Yingdon

Abstract

The separation process of methanol and methyl acetate by pressure swing distillation is studied. The three key parameters of number of theoretical plates,feed stage and reflux ratio are discussed through simulated calculation. The optimum technical conditions are analyzed and determined,and the technical process and unit consumption are given. The separation process is simple and the high purity products can obtained without adding third component.
