In the traditional production of acetic esters, water generated in the esterification reaction
can form azeotropes with the ester or the unreacted alcohol, which requires subsequent …

Methyl acetate is considered low toxicity volatile solvent produced either as a by-product
during methanol carbonylation or via acetic acid esterification with methanol. In both cases …

In the industrial manufacturing process of polyvinyl alcohol, there is inevitably a small
amount of acetaldehyde in the alcoholysis solution (methyl acetate/methanol mixture), the …

In the present study, dynamic modeling, optimal operation and control of a reactive batch
distillation process is illustrated based on experimental and simulation studies using methyl …

Supercritical transesterification of lipid-based biomasses, a recent technique to produce
biofuel without a catalyst, is discussed. This review focused on a glycerol-free process. The …

Reactive distillation is a process that combines chemical reaction and separation in a single
piece of equipment (distillation column). The process has a lot of benefits especially for …

Green economic revolution is a system that brings about improved human well-being and
social equity while significantly reducing carbon emissions, enhancing energy efficiency and …

Reactive distillation, being an intensified process of combining reaction and distillation in a
single vessel, is an ongoing research. This work considered the use of this novel process to …

The development of a process for the production of hydrogen through water-gas shift
reaction has been developed and simulated in this work using Aspen HYSYS. This was …

Acrylate polymer is widely used to manufacture display films as an adhesive. Improper
disposal of acrylate polymer-containing display film waste (a kind of E-waste) may cause …
