Download Flash Distillation in Chemical & Process Engineering

Flash Distillation in Chemical & Process Engineering udemy video course download, Learn How to Model and Operate Flash Distillation Units in Chemical Plants. Flash Distillation is one of the most important Mass Transfer Operations used extensively in the Chemical industry. It is also one of the most important processes to learn in Mass Transfer / Separation Process Technologies as it is a fundamental unit operation.

Understanding the concept behind Flash Distillation, the vapor-liquid equilibrium and all other mass transfer interaction will allow you to understand and model Flash Drums and Flashing Systems. Most of them can be used to “theoretically” model other unit operations such as: Distillation Columns, Batch Distillator, Tray Columns and Packed column, etc…
