The pilot distillation column operates in continuous and batch mode in a closed loop without time constraints. Samples can be taken from any part of unit. Distillation column can be use for separation of inhomogeneous liquid mixtures in chemical, petrochemical, oil refining, gas processing, organic synthesis, pharmaceutical and other industries.

Process Innovation:

The fundamental difference of cyclic distillation column from conventional technology (columns) is increasing mass transfer in 2…3 times. This gives opportunities to less column height in 2…3 times; lower hot and electricity energy consumption 20…35% because lower reflux rate and reduction column height; smaller square of the heat exchanger; less steel construction and other. In total we have lower investment cost of project 20…50%. The high level of competition in business gives a high rate of improvement of production processes with a constant increasing of the quality of the products and reducing of their costs. The leadership position in the market could be provided by permanent scientific research development.
