Shortcut Distillation
Component Separator General separator can specify split fractions or split flow rates for components Useful when trying to model steady state conditions of unusual separation equipment and conditions (i.e. membrane separation) -can specify split fraction or split flow rate for each component -more of an “abstract” separator; black-box separator -can be used to isolate a pure component from a mixture or Flash Distillation Component Separator SCDS Distillation 9 Batch Distillation Shortcut Distillation Conclusion Example
