A Methodology to Integrate Closed‐Cycle Heat Pumps into Batch Distillation Columns
Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.Batch distillation often cannot use vapor recompression due to contamination risks in food and pharma. This study proposes a design for integrating closed‐loop heat pumps using natural fluids. Results show significant energy savings, offering a sustainable alternative to traditional setups.

Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.In terms of electrification, directly heated structured packings are a viable option. They offer the advantage of providing energy where it is required, thereby positively impacting the separation process and helping to minimize heat loss. Using CO2 desorption from aqueous MEA solution as an exemplary process, different heating strategies are compared.

Global and Detailed Calculation of Tube Wall Temperature in a Process Furnace Steam Superheater
Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.This study presents a comparison between an iterative global model and multiple approaches to a new non‐iterative model with the purpose of predicting tube wall temperature of a superheater. The results show that the non‐iterative method achieves sufficient accuracy while improving the prediction of local temperature distribution and better ...
