Summary
-
1.
A critical review of literature data on fractionation data at reduced pressure has been given.
-
2.
It has been shown that if mass-transfer is controlled by the liquid phase, the HTU increases with a reduction in pressure; but if it is controlled by the vapor phase, then HTU changes only little with pressure.
-
3.
A number of contradictions in studies on vacuum fractionation can be laid to the charge of incorrect physical model set-up.
-
4.
The analysis conducted makes it possible to explain the greater part of results on fractionation on packings under reduced pressure.
