EUTEC™ FS - Installation case study 27
(27) Separation of water from ethylbenzene
Aim of EUTEC installation | Removal of water from ethylbenzene after cleaning with NaOH (sodium hydroxide) solution for the purpose of removing impurities |
---|---|
Expected benefits of EUTEC installation | Reduce scaling of the distillation tower by removal of sodium ions contained in the water, enabling a reduced burden in terms of maintenance required |
Target liquids | Ethylbenzene, water |
Model of oil-water separator used (process flow rate) | Custom-made (120kL/hr) |
