Development of a monitoring and control system for operational study of dividing wall column pilot plant
Dividing wall column (DWC) provides a good alternative for processes using conventional distillation column due to possible saving in both energy and capital cost. So far, about 40 divided wall columns (DWCs) are in operation worldwide, about 30 of them within the BASF group. The potential of DWC is...
