ALSYS-EN0302-PERVAPORATION
Pervaporation is a process used for separating liquid mixtures through partial vaporization. ORELIS ENVIRONNEMENT utilizes Hybsi® ceramic pervaporation membranes to separate water from solvents and organic compounds. The company offers a mobile pilot-scale system for feasibility studies and process design, particularly in solvent recycling, aromatic mixture concentration, and esterification process improvement.
Unique Features of the Pervaporation Pilot
- Compact design with a large membrane area for small feed volumes.
- Easy integration into industrial plants.
- Versatile operation with vapor or liquid feed.
- Scalable up to 100 times the pilot scale.
- Efficient dehydration of organic mixtures, achieving water content as low as 100 ppm.
- High water permeation flow rate exceeding 4 kg/h.
- Compatibility with various solvents and continuous permeate condensation.
- Stable process conditions.
Versatile Pilot Plant Capabilities
- Utilizes ceramic or polymeric membranes.
- Operates in pervaporation or vapor permeation modes.
- Offers stable dehydration or rapid purification.
- Features semi-automatic or automatic control.
Module Pleiade® Applications and Benefits
- Industries: Pharmaceutical, Chemicals, Petrochemicals, Biofuels, Fine Chemistry, Flavor & Fragrances, Food & Beverage.
- Applications: Solvent recycling, alcohol dehydration, esterification mixtures dehydration, azeotropic breaking, and aromatic mixtures concentration.
- Benefits: High selectivity, low energy consumption, minimal process modification, and flexibility for batch or continuous processes.
Performance Data
- Maximum temperature: 120°C; Maximum pressure: 8 bar.
- Membrane area: 0.15 m² to 1.05 m².
- Example performance: Butanol dehydration at 80-100°C with a flux of 3.5 kg/h.m², resulting in 98% water in the permeate.
- Other mixtures tested include ethanol, methyl isobutyl ketone, ethyl acetate, and ester acrylate with varying water content in the permeate.
