1.0 OBJECTIVES
CHEMICAL PREPARATION
In order to prepare an X V/V% component of A mixture with B, please refer the table below (this is for 1L binary mixture, please
follow the ratio for preparation of larger volume. E.g. for 20L binary mixture of 50V/V% of ethanol-water mixture, mix 10L ethanol
with 10L distilled water ):
NOTE
1. Ethanol is volatile and will evaporate quickly. Avoid exposing these chemicals to the atmosphere for extended periods of time.
2. Dispose of all unused chemicals in an appropriate manner after the experiment. Under no circumstances should the
chemicals be allowed to flow into the main drains.

5.0 PROCEDURES
1. Attach the inlet hose from the condenser unit to a cold water supply and the outlet hose to a drain.
2. Ensure that all valves on the unit are closed.
3. Connect the unit to a 415 VAC 3 phase 50 Hz power supply and switch on the power supply.
4. Switch ON the main power switch in front of both of the control panels on the unit.
5. Open valves V105 and V107 for initial vacuum suction application if desired. Keep an eye on the pressure gauge,
close V105 and V107 when the vacuum pressure reaches 0.2 bar.
6. The unit is now ready for experiments.
7. After the experiment, leave the sieve plate column for 20 minutes to cool down. Turn off the water supply and
disconnect the hoses if not required. Do not open the reboiler cap while the contents are at high temperatures as
vapors might rush out of the tank.
8. For storage purposes during a long break, drain off the contents in the reboiler with valves (DV01), reflux tank
(DV02) and top product tank (DV106). All alcohol samples can be re-used after the experiment, as long as they are
uncontaminated. Else, maintain the tank with alcohol to conduct further experiments.
9. Switch off the main power unit and power supply.
5.3 EXPERIMENT
EXPERIMENT PRE-PROCEDURE
1. Attach the inlet hose from the condenser unit to a cold water supply and the outlet hose to a drain.
2. Ensure that all hand valves on the unit are closed except the one on the water inlet valve V104.
3. Connect the unit to a 415 VAC 3 phase 50 Hz power supply and switch on the power supply.

Note: If the system still not working (there are still no flow in the distillation) after 80 oC, open valve DV02 for a while to release the
pressure. After reached 2 bar, close the valve again.

1) Use 3 different reflux ratio (70%, 50% and 30%). So it will have 3 graphs.
1. Discuss the advantages of a bubble cap distillation column compared to sieve plate and valve plate columns.
2. As a process design engineer, given a set of product output quality and flow requirements, describe how you would
proceed in designing the distillation system and calculate the cost of operations.
