Distillation column is a tall metal cylinder internally fitted with perforated horizontal plates used to promote separation of miscible liquids ascending in the cylinder as vapor. They also function to saparate air into its various components, principally oxygen and nitrogen. For separating air in distillation columns these are taken into their liquid form rather than gaseous state.
Distillation columns are designed based on the boiling point properties of the components in the mixtures being separated. Thus the sizes, particularly the height, of distillation columns are determined by the vapour liquid equilibrium (VLE) data for the mixtures. |

Types of Distillation Column
Batch Distillation Column
The column is charged with a ‘batch’ and then the distillation process is carried out. When the desired task is achieved, a next batch of feed is introduced. A condenser to turns the vapors back to a liquid so they can be easily collected. Batch distillation comprises of tall column that is desirable to improve the separation. Finally, by using different collection vessels, the original mixture can be separated into fractions. Batch distillation is labor intensive.
Continuous Distillation Column
The two major types of continuous columns are :
Such columns consist of physically separated pools of liquid which are in intimate contact with a vapor.
Packed Column
Such columns are filled with a saddle shaped packing. This packing provides a lot of surface area for the vapor to condense upon and assures that the liquid and vapor are in intimate contact
