Title: Dynamic Modeling of a Packed Bed Reactive Distillation System and Optimal Opeartion of Batch Distillation Systems
Abstract: A dynamic model of general reactive distillation processes employing a packed bed column is derived. Particular reaction for the esterification of acetic acid and menthol is carried out. Simulation and experimental studies confirm that the model is highly reliable. Batch reactive distillation for the above esterification reaction is examined. By optimizing the operatal condition, the conversion of reaction can be increased more significantly compared with the capabilities of a pure batch reaction process. The experimental and simulation studies show that it is essentially important to conduct the analysis.
