Abstract
The problems in matching an external mechanical vapour compression heat pump to a distillation process in heat pump assisted distillation are discussed. There are four main design parameters to consider when selecting a working fluid for the heat pump, of which only two are independent. Various arrangements for imperfectly matched systems are presented, including the use of a two stage heat pump. A number of other factors which affect the choice of a heat pump assisted distillation system, including economic factors, are also considered.
