Which Catalytic Processes Benefit from Simple Distillation?
Several catalytic processes can benefit from simple distillation, including:
Hydrocarbon Cracking: This process produces a mixture of lighter hydrocarbons that can be separated by distillation. Esterification: The removal of water is crucial for shifting the equilibrium towards ester formation. Hydrogenation: Purification of reactants and products to prevent catalyst poisoning. Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis: Separation of liquid hydrocarbons from other components.
