β¦ Synopsis
A~S~IW~--ZLJ~ERW~G and HARMENS [l] have already given strong evidence of the importance of interfacial properties in various types of distillation equipment. The work herein reported demonstrates how some of the interfacial effects can be controlled to advantage by the use of small amounts of surfactants. The efficiency of a small packed distillation column is increased by as much as 100 per cent by the addition of small amounts of such materials.

An experimental study with three different heterogeneous azeotropic mixtures (acetone/toluene/water, 1-propanol/1-butanol/ water and ethanol/cyclohexane/water) has been carried out with the object to analyze the separation efficiency of three-phase distillation in a packed column. The experiments we
Packed columns have become increasingly important for rectification in the past years. Research activities in distillation and in developing distillation equipment have led to highβcapacity packings as well as to the sandwichβpacking. The sandwich packing advantageously combines a number of characte
