SEPARATION OF ETHANOL BY PERVAPORATION: RECENT DEVELOPMENTS Submitted By: Vinod Godara (Roll No. 11010760) B.Tech. Undergraduate, Final Year, Dept. of Chemical Engineering, IIT Guwahati, Email: g.vinod@iitg.ernet.in  Abstract: Bio-alcohols are produced from biomass by fermentation, and distillation is commonly used to separate the alcohol from the aqueous phase. This is, however, a high energy consumption process, and alternative approaches to this separation are being pursued. In this

Laboratorio De Analisis Argentina (LAA) to evaluate its process and identify strengths and weaknesses to improve the operations of their laboratories. An in-depth investigation into day-to-day, step-by-step breakdown of activities has uncovered where, and how LAA can achieve efficient operations. From the original collection of samples to the final step of communicating the test results to the patients, LAA has shown that they have created a process with numerous factors to success as well as room for

alarming rate by the year 2025. Hence, there are needs a new technologies for desalination and wastewater treatments, to meet the requirement water demands with credible and affordable water sources. [Teoh and Chung, 2009] (1) Desalination is a process in which saline water is separated into two parts using different forms of energy. One that has a low con-centration of dissolved salts (fresh water), and the other which has a much higher concentration of dissolved salts than the original feed water

different gases. This report will summarise the different separating techniques in thorough detail and how it employed in the two different mixtures. The method that was used to separate from solids and liquids, was filtration. Filtration is the process in which the solution is passed through filter paper lining the sides of a funnel, the liquids is able to permeate through but the solids

it occupies relatively low percentage. Here, we quite seamlessly try to find a relatively simple and effective process for plastic recycling in lieu of the above surveyed data. Approach to the Problem Now precisely speaking, we have five categories of wastes i.e., biodegradable, plastics, metal, glass, and inert (sand etc.). Metals can be easily separated beforehand by magnetic separation technique and eddy current method. Glass and bottles can be separated manually as these are relatively larger

energy used to operate plants in chemical industries [1]. As a result, researchers have focused their efforts towards developing distillation columns that are more compact, utilize compressors to recirculate latent heat and possess more effective separation technology in order to reduce energy consumption. The principal topics of research that pose effective solutions to these present-day energy challenges are: the use of divided-wall columns (DWC), self-heat recuperation

column. In an experiment, the first step of the process begins with the mixture/sample being added to the eluent or the mobile phase. The eluent is what moves through the column. Both the mobile and stationary phases intermingle with the compounds. This causes the compounds to have different attractions to one of the two or both of the phases. This is how we separate the different compounds in the mixture because they go at different rates. This process is slightly similar to gel electrophoresis in

distillation occur, the process is termed fractional distillation. Additionally, it is crucial for students to understand the principles of gas chromatography so the purity and percent composition of each fraction can be determined. Theory: The basis for this

Adsorption Chromatography Adsorption chromatography involves a solid stationary phase and a liquid or gaseous mobile phase. Depending on the partitioning coefficient value the least soluble or best adsorbed ones travel more slowly. This results in a separation into bands containing different solutes. Different adsorbents like silica gel or alumina is used for this purpose. Partition Chromatography In partition chromatography the stationary phase is a non-volatile liquid which is held as a thin layer (or
