Some possible reasons for contradictory results in investigations of fractionation at reduced pressure

  • Published:
Chemistry and Technology of Fuels and Oils Aims and scope

Summary

  1. 1.

    A critical review of literature data on fractionation data at reduced pressure has been given.

  2. 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. 3.

    A number of contradictions in studies on vacuum fractionation can be laid to the charge of incorrect physical model set-up.

  4. 4.

    The analysis conducted makes it possible to explain the greater part of results on fractionation on packings under reduced pressure.
