Abstract
AbstractDivided‐wall column (DWC) is an intensified separation process and so far developing a simple procedure for designing these units has been challenging. In this work, the concept of molecular tracking has been integrated with conventional methods to build a simple and easy‐to‐use methodology for designing DWCs for multicomponent separations. Application of the proposed approach is highlighted through several three‐ and four‐component mixtures. The configuration obtained using molecular tracking gives a design with lower energy demands for the column reboiler, compared to other design methodology, which directly impacts the OPEX of the system.
