| Batch distillation columns modeling and simulation |
|
Objectives
Trainees will study different rigorous methods to analyse issues related to batch distillation (design, quality control...) with the support of the BatchColumn software.
By the end of the session, participants will be better equiped to evaluate the optimization potential of the different parameters that constitute their column and to plan for modification on their equipment.

Who should attend?
This training session is designed for those involved in safety, sizing, design and optimization studies of distillation columns, in particular engineers working on batch production processes or in laboratories. It is also relevant to those involved in solvent regeneration and in VOC treatment.
