Experimental data for the production of diacetone alcohol (DAA) with catalytic distillation (CD) are presented and discussed. CD has several advantages over conventional fixed-bed reactors since acetone conversions which exceed the equilibrium limit can be obtained, and no cooling of the acetone fee

The aldol condensation of acetone to diacetone alcohol (DAA) has been accomplished with catalytic distillation (CD). A steady-state, rate-based model for the reaction zone of the CD column is developed and fitted to the experimental data which were presented in Part I of this paper. This model is un
In recent years, most of the simulation methods proposed for solving distillation problems in which three.-phase distillation occurs use a Newton-Raphson or a comparable approach which requires an initial estimate ofvariables close enough to the final answer. A plate-to-plate calculation which is mo
## Abstract This work reports the modelling and simulation of a hybrid process, based on the combination of distillation and pervaporation, for the separation of azeotropic mixtures of alcoholโether. After having selected the separation of methanolโ2โmetoxiโ2,2โdimethyl ethane (ETHER) as a motivati
