EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The main objective of this project was to carry out a design on the Propane distillation column for a process that produces 1‚3 Butadiene. The raw materials used are Butane‚ Oxygen and Water and the process capacity is 100 000 tonnes per annum nominal. In the previous work it was stated that the plant is located in China. The main location of the plant is in the capital city of the Gansu Provence‚ Lanzhou. This was decided as the location over other provinces due to the excellent

The Extraction of Bio-ethanol from Apple (Malus domesticus) and Banana (Musa accuminata Colla) Peelings through the Process of Fermentation and Distillation Abstract Apple (Malus domesticus) and banana (Musa accuminata Colla) peelings are common household waste products. This study sought to extract bioethanol from these two peelings and to compare which sample can produce more bioethanol. About 400 grams of apple and banana peeling was obtained from the 1 kilogram bought from the supermarket

Watt Steam Engine‚ Industrial Revolution in England The Watt steam engine (alternatively known as the Boulton and Watt steam engine) was the first type of steam engine to make use of steam at a pressure just above atmospheric to drive the piston helped by a partial vacuum. Improving on the design of the 1712 Newcomen engine‚ the Watt steam engine‚ developed sporadically from 1763 to 1775‚ was the next great step in the development of the steam engine. Offering a dramatic increase in fuel efficiency

Comparing between the simple and fractional distillation‚ the fractional distillations for both n-propanol and acetone provided a better distillation. The data and graphs support the statement since the fractional graphs provided a steeper slope than the simple distillation. The steeper slope represent how fast the mixture are separated throughout the distillations. For example‚ the simple distillation for acetone the slope initially started at about 20 mL at about 65.5℃ and ended at about 30 mL

Distillation of Alcoholic Beverages Pamela Mallari*‚ Symon Manuel‚ Katherine Merene and Charlene Mondelo Department of Chemistry‚ University of Santo Tomas‚ Manila‚ Philippines Abstract Distillation is a physical process used to separate chemicals from a mixture by the difference in how easily they vaporize. This experiment aims to (1) compare the efficiency of simple and fractional distillation‚ (2) distill and calculate the % of ethanol and (3) determine the % loss in distillation. Two

Mona Vaidya 02/04/2014 CHE 317 Laboratory Experiment #1: Simple Distillation of Two Volatile Liquids Containing Non-Volatile Impurities Introduction: Simple distillation is a commonly used method to separate and purify the mixtures of organic liquids into their original components. Mixtures of two miscible liquids with two different boiling points were separated. Therefore‚ it can be said that the two organic compounds are separated by exploiting the different boiling temperatures of the liquids

Distillation Purpose: To conduct the distillation process‚ simple or fractional. Procedure: 1. Add 5ml of 20% ethanol: water mix to the distillation flask. 2. Add 23 stir bar 3. Make sure that the thermometer bulb is just below the Claisen Head‚ carefully. Be very gentle with the thermometers and take care not to break them. 4. Label 3 vials‚ 1‚2‚ and 3. 5. Place receiving vial 1 on ice to collect the distillate 6. Start the distillation by piling up hot sand around the distillation flask with

governed. An organisational structure is the process of arranging people and other resources to work together to accomplish a goal (Schermerhorn‚ 2011). However‚ what happens when there is no organisational structure? This is the theme of the “Valve Steams Ahead” case study in which this report is assessing. Using peer-reviewed sources and other research‚ an analysis will be made of Valve Software’s operations regarding their flat‚ unstructured organisational structure. This report will examine Valve’s

FRACTIONAL DISTILLATION October 29‚ 2012 CHEM 210 ME01 INTRODUCTION The process of separating the components of a mixture by distillation into relatively pure fractions is referred to as fractional distillation. Simple distillation‚ a process with similar goals‚ is noted for being a satisfactory attempt at separating two components in an ideal mixture‚ but not as accurate as fractional distillation. To explore these statements further‚ there needs to be an in depth look at the theory that supports

I. Introduction Fractional distillation is the separation of a mixture into its fractional parts that entails many concurrent vaporization-condensation cycles. This works because of different boiling points of individual substances. The temperature of the fractional distillation column decreases as its length increases. A higher boiling point component condenses on the column and returns to the solution whereas the lower boiling point component passes through the column and is collected in a receiver
