Hi, I a fourth year Chemical Engineering student and have been researching different methods of dehydrating ethanol that has been produced from maize.
The plan is to stop the distillation at 90% and continue the dehydration with an appropriate technique. During my research I have found that the use of molecular sieves is widespread, however the companies who provide them tend to design a unit specific to that particular sieve. They have proved very unhelpful with regards to advice, ideas for flowsheets etc. I have also looked into pervaporation. Does anyone have any comments that would assist me, or any other methods that I could employ? Many thanks, joanne Duff ------------------------ Yahoo!
