Reactive Condenser and Reboiler

4 Thermodynamic and Kinetic Effects on the Feasible Products of Reactive Distillation 

The dimensionless mass balances for the reactive condenser and the reactive reboiler are obtained as [14]  

In Eqs. (3) and (4), the vapor phase mole fractions y and the liquid phase mole fractions %i have to fulfil the vapor-liquid-liquid equilibrium conditions in case of heterogeneous liquid mixtures, and the vapor-liquid equilibrium conditions in homogeneous mixtures. For the latter case, the reaction term 0 in Eq. (5) simplifies to
