Students visiting our laboratories

The students enrolled in the course “Impianti Chimici” and “Process Design: Principles and Methods” visited our laboratory. The operation of a distillation column was analysed by studying the separation of an ethanol-water mixture. The temperature profile, obtained by the outputs of the probes, was discussed at different reflux ratios. The students also had the opportunity to observe and understand how the contact between the vapour and liquid phases occurs on bubble-cup trays.
