Adsorptive Distillation Using Molecular Sieves and Low-Cost Biobased Adsorbents for the Break-up of the Isopropanol–Water Azeotrope
The separation of isopropanol from aqueous vapours near the azeotropic composition was investigated using fixed beds packed with type A molecular sieves and biobased adsorbents. Natural palm stones, oak and corncobs were used as new biobased adsorbents. It was possible to break the azeotrope up usin...
