Just a quick and obvious reply:

Don't hold your breath waiting to receive what is considered to be proprietary information - for free. I seriously doubt that you will get one response.

No one is going to share (at least not legally) information that is considered proprietary and secretive for obvious, competitive reasons.

What do you need this information for? Is this a school assignment that you simply want to avoid generating? Tell us the real, factual reason for this request and perhaps we can help in a legal correct manner.

Yeah Sir this a school assignment.I am not asking for the exact answer rather I want a rough information on the outlets of distillation columns and it's operating pressure and temperature.It is by no means for any illegal use.I am a student and how can I think of doing such a criminal act.

Suggestion for future postings - Use a more descriptive title for you postings. For example, "Vinyl Acetate Monomer Distillation" would catch the attention of anyone working in that technology and is more likely to get you a useful response. Many people won't waste their time loooking at something with a title like "Help"; most of those who do quickly realize its outside their area of expertise, but they've wasted their time to do so. This is easily avoided to the benefit of all.
