Title: Product maximization
Post by: fredodgers on November 19, 2013, 09:42:28 PM
Hello everyone,

I have a question that came up during my design project for my class.  In the process, we are trying to separate diethyl ether from other substances (like ethanol, carbonyl, etc.) by using wash columns, dryers, and separation columns.  Are there any well established norms or any suggestions from people here for maximizing the pure ether product?
