Dissertations -- Process engineering Theses -- Process engineering Distillation apparatus Distillation Thesis (MScEng (Process Engineering))--University of Stellenbosch, 2005. Catalytic Distillation (CD) is a hybrid technology that utilizes the dynamics of si- multaneous reaction and separation in a single process unit to achieve a more compact, economical, efficient and optimized process design when compared to the traditional multi-unit designs. The project goal (and key question) is (how) to design a cost-effective, simple and accurate laboratory-scale continuous CD system that will sufficiently and accurately supply useful data for model validation. The system to be investigated is the continuous hydrogenation of an a-olefin C6 (1-hexene) feed stream to the corresponding alkane (n-hexane) product with simultaneous reactant/product separation. Hypothetically, a system can be constructured to determine whether hydrogenation will benefit from the heat and mass transfer integration observed under CD conditions in terms of energy usage, temperature control and the catalyst's surface hydrogen concentration. System convergence with commercial distillation simulation packages ...
