Volatilization systems

The O Connell correlation (149, Fig. 7.5a). This correlation is based on test data from 31 plant columns, including hydrocarbon, chlorinated hydrocarbon, and alcohol separation columns. It evolved from an earlier correlation by Drickamer and Bradford (150), which empirically correlated efficiency test data for 54 refinery columns, The earlier correlation was modified by O Connell to include nonhydrocarbon and high-relative-volatility systems. 

If the Koshy and Rukovena theory is correct, than only high-relative-volatility systems are likely to be effected by X, because at... 

Some tests by Koshy and Rukovena (110,111) with aqueous, high-relative-volatility systems (a >2) gave much lower random packing efficiencies at high and low L/V than close to total reflux. They interpreted the results as an LfV ratio effect however, underwetting (below) can also explain these data. 

Several enhanced distillation-based separation techniques have been developed for close-boiling or low-relative-volatility systems, and for systems exhibiting azeotropic behavior. All these special techniques are ultimately based on the same differences in the vapor and liquid compositions as ordinary distillation but, in addition, they rely on some additional mechanism to further modify the vapor-liquid behavior of the key components. These enhanced techniques can be classified according to their effect on the relationship between the vapor and liquid compositions ... 

Coupled histories of atmospheric and interior planetary volatiles. Highly detailed models of noble-gas sources and evolution for the atmosphere and interior of the Earth have been developed separately and almost independently. However, the origin and history of atmospheric noble gases are not independent of the sources, distributions, and transport histories of noble gases within a planet—these two volatile systems...

It has been found that rapidly-volatilizing systems will cool the bar and thus influence time-to-penetration. To avoid this, the bar should be at ambient temperature for each trial. Where heavy substrates or weak solvents are being tested, bar weight may be increased to facilitate quicker testing.

Very thin and uniform sources have been prepared on targets in a mass spectrometer or a thermal volatilization system (see Section 3.6.1). Such preparations require a relatively intense radioactive source. 

Furthermore, other residue curves can be produced in the same manner by simply altering the initial charge composition, and integrating Equation 2.8. The entire MET can then be populated with residue curves. However, it is logical to only show a few curves, as is done in Figure 2.5a. Such a collection of residue curves is known as a residue curve map. Figure 2.5a shows a three component RCM for a constant relative volatility system, as indicated... 

Geometrically, Equation 2.24 represents a straight line in Xi X2 space and is only a function of the volatilities of the system. An example of the discontinuity for a constant relative volatility system is shown in Figure 2.17a through a dashed line on the outside of the MET.

The individual influence of S on the DPE thus results in an RCM, an example of which is shown in Figure 3.12a for a constant volatility system.
