Good day to you !

 

currently I want to design a plant of Biodiesel. and I have a question, when you have a Methanol stream with the concentration of 60%. which equipment that I should choose in order to get 95% concentration.

 

mostly in the plant there would be Methanol rectification. but since the streamline only contain water, is it enough just to have dryer ?

 

Thank You

Hi, 

Did you check the boiling point of the materials? This should be a good start.

the boiling point between methanol and water quite high, but in case I want to get wet methanol like 95%, is dryer already enough rather than invest bigger capex for the rectification

I don't understand your question! what type of dryer are you talking about?
