ALCOHOL CONCENTRATION PLANT FOR PHARMACEUTIC INDUSTRY
The feedstock, normally, contains heat-sensitive proteins and the plant must avoid any reaction that could affect the quality of the final product. The plant is, therefore, designed to work on a two-effect basis. The feed is pumped from storage to the first column (stripping), which operates under vacuum at a very low temperature in the bottom section.
This column is heated by the latent heat of the condensing alcohol vapour from the second column (rectification), operating at atmospheric pressure.
