Feature
|
1
|
single-column process
|
|
1.Methonal-water regroup, separate in one column
2.Advatange: investment saving, reduce heat energy consumption
3.Disadvantage: the purity of refined methonal is not very pure.
|
2
|
two-column process
|
|
1.The combination of pre-recification column and main rectification column
2.Refine crude methonol including dimethyl ether and other light components and reducing impurities
3.Advantage: simple process ,user friendly, less investment
4.Disadvange: high energy consumption, low purity
|
3
|
three -column process
|
|
1.Three rectification column work under the same pressure. The third rectification column produces
2.Advantage: high purity
3.Disadvantage: high investment. Need more area
