Reduction of the Energy Consumption of the Iso-/normal-butane Gas Splitting Process by Optimising the Reflux Rate

In the present study, we set out to examine an energy-reduction method whereby the reflux ratio of the iso-/normal-butane gas-splitting process is optimised. The splitting process used in this study was designed to be capable of handling 4,000 kg/h of mixed butane as a feedstock, to produce 2,600 kg...
