| Research Abstract |
A study was conducted to analyze the property of a distillation apparatus proposed in our study. The unique feature of the apparatus is that the heat integration within the distillation system can be easily attained. A simulation study was conducted to clarify the effects of number of stages and other design parameters on the energy consumption rate. It was revealed that within the range of the study, the energy cost can be reduced substantially by introducing the proposed system. The separation principle of the proposed system was confirmed to be valid through an experimental investigation.
