RDRD-- why it workswhy it works
For reversible reaction, A=B, one can breakthe equilibrium conversion by removing B.
Remark: We have two functions, reaction/separation, in one unit.

l Limited real world applications– MTBE, ETBE, TAME– EG– MeAc, EtAc
l Design– A large variety of flowsheets exists– Seems to vary from case-to-case (lack
of a systematic approach)l Control
– Seems to be very nonlinear– Very little was known
l Simulation– Very difficult to converge

RDRD-- where to place the reactorwhere to place the reactor
If a reactive zone is present in a RD, where should we put it?
It depends on relative volatility ranking!!!

reversible reaction
where the reactants are intermediate boiling between the two products, which is the ideal situation for reactive distillation.

Nomenclature
o There are 24 (4!) possibilities which can be simplified to 6 configurations, and then we can classify them into 3types according to the ranking of relative volatilities for the reactants and products

Steady-State Design Procedureo Place the heavy reactant feed (NFheavey) on the top of the reactive
zone and specify the light reactant feed (NFlight) several trays apart from the upper feed tray .
o Fix a number of reactive trays (Nrxn).
o Guess the tray numbers in the rectifying section (NR) and stripping section (NS)
o Go back to 3 and change NR and NS until TAC is minimized.
o Go back to 2 and vary Nrxn until TAC is minimized.
o Go back to 1 and find the feed tray locations (NFheavey & NFlight) until TAC is minimized.

Heuristicso H1: It is not favorable to have the reactant as the lightest
component (light component →low temperature).o H2: Prefer the case that the relative volatilities between
two products is large (easy separation for the products).o H3: Prefer the case that the relative volatilities between
two reactants is small (high concentration for both reactants).
![Page 58: Conceptual Design of Reactive Distillationhomepage.ntu.edu.tw/~petro/new/722/a.pdf · Outline oBackground-Reactive distillation oConceptual design-relative volatility ranking nMotivation](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022418/5a7232857f8b9a93538d8437/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Conclusiono The reactive distillation configuration depends on the
ranking of boiling points between reactants and products.o For a quaternary system with second order reversible
reaction , different kinds of feasible process configuration are proposed with all possible relative volatility rankings.
o Heuristics are given to evaluate potential difficulty in the reactive distillation design
o The conclusions drawn is based on the study of the neat process (no excess of either reactants).

ScaleScale--up a RDup a RDn Distillation:
Generally the number of trays, feed tray location, RR, BR remain constant (can be seen from MaCabe –Thiele diagram) while the column diameter is determined from the vapor load.
n Reactor: Hold the residence time constant. So the reactor size increases with feed rate.
n Recycle plant:scale-up the reactor and distillation columns accordingly.

Conclusions
o Investigate the scale-up of reactive distillation.o Direct scale-up is possible with little loss of economical
potentials.o Direct control structure extrapolation is workable.o Little difference between conventional distillation and
reactive distillation as far as scale-up is concerned.
