Thank you Mr.Ahmed, really appreciate this video. I am a Mechanical Engineering student. I look forward to be working with a gas industry. This video had helped me to understand the important processes within the major vessels. Thank you once again.

[@medoKhatat]

Thanks so much for your kind words. I am so glad that you found it useful

[@elmatso89]

Thank you so much for this video.
As a chemical process operator i am now fully aware of what is actually happening in my process 🌡

[@medoKhatat]

Thank you so much

[@massambasow2609]

What a great video. Really appreciate your content. Hat down.

[@ivanasaini5039]

Simply the best content I’ve ever found on TH-cam. Explaining using the visual effects helps a lot. Thank you Mr. Ahmed for the explanation of the topics.
Will look forward for the other videos posted on your channel for clearing my doubts.
👍🙂

[@medoKhatat]

Thanks a lot. Highly appreciate your kind words

[@ivanasaini5039]

Sir kindly make a video on the method to find tower diameter and tray design !

[@medoKhatat]

sure, I will

[@wood4me]

Perfect explanation. I have learnt the process from my own Fractionation still, and I love the way you have explained it. The production of alcohol is a very simple process when using a Fractionation still. My output (for the last 8 years) has always been 94.5 percent. And the liquid which I drink, either that which I have put through may carbon column, or that which I drink straight, is magnificent. Thanks for the video. I will keep a copy to show my friends. Cheers.

Thanks a lot. Most welcome :)

Oh my god this video is amazing! Thank you very much Mr.Ahmed! Thanks to this i went from barely understanding distillation to understanding all the minor details of such a complex process. Again i have no words but thank you, knowledge is a better life for us all.

THANKS SIR... GREAT EXPLANATION

[@medoKhatat]

Dipak Giram most welcome

[@saiswaroop3672]

While doing the material balance, F (feed)= L (reflux) + D (distillate) here when we apply component balance for the highly volatile component we get FxF = LxL + DyD. So, actually, the reflux is just a condensed stream of the distillate so it will be just a physical split right so, will that mean xL = xD always?

[@medoKhatat]

We can't apply the material balance for the feed like this. Your mentioned material balance is for the rectifying part, where V (Vapour of the overhead product) = L(Reflux)+ D (Distillate).
We cannot apply this for feed, because the operating line of the feed depends on its enthalpy, hence, part of it might go up as vapors, and part of it might go down as a liquid

[@juliosantisteban8452]

In batch distillation, the head and tail contain undesirable components, what happens in the continues distillation?

[@medoKhatat]

The advantage of continuous distillation is that you can make side withdrawing of the product at any stage, top, middle, bottom, etc, to get rid off the undesirable component at any stage , the product at that stage can be fed to more refinery stages (eg: Cracking, Isomerization, treating, reforming, etc)

[@leonardobonucci1941]

I want to know what is the meaning of adsorption ??? Thank you for this valuable information, Mr. Ahmed💖💖💖

[@medoKhatat]

Adsorption is similar to absorption process, but in the absorption the material absorb on its surface (like activated carbon that absorb fumes). adsorption is always related to a solid material that adsorb fluid (gas or liquid) the adsorption process is physical process (reversible), but if it irreversible it is normally known as (chemisorption). Hope you find it useful

[@koneruneelesh79]

If it physical separation in the condensor then why is the mole fraction of reflux changing

[@medoKhatat]

Mole fraction changes along the column, as you go up the fraction of the more volatile component increases, and as you go down, the less volatile component increase.

[@koneruneelesh79]

@@medoKhatat can we consider rectification column as a absorber and workout as absorber

[@medoKhatat]

@@koneruneelesh79 Surely you can
