Distillation is one of the most important methods of separation used in the chemical processing industry. Although energy intensive, this method is typically the first choice among separation technologies because it is not limited by scale and is highly robust. The purpose of this experiment was to study how the effect of different feed flow rates in a distillation column will affect Murphree tray efficiencies and overall efficiency.
