Distillation has historically been the main method for separating mixtures in the chemical process industry. However, despite the flexibility and widespread use of distillation processes, they still remain extremely energy inefficient. Increased optimization and novel distillation concepts can deliver substantial benefits, not just in terms of significantly lower energy use, but also in reducing capital investment and improving eco-efficiency. While likely to remain the separation technology of choice for the next few decades, there is no doubt that distillation technologies need to make radical changes in order to meet the demands of the energy-conscious society.
Advanced Distillation Technologies gives a deep and broad insight into integrated separations using non-conventional arrangements, including both current and upcoming process intensification technologies.

Containing abundant examples and industrial case studies, this is a unique resource that tackles the most advanced distillation technologies - all the way from the conceptual design to practical implementation.
