Forecasting mixture composition in the extractive distillation of n-hexane and ethyl acetate with n-methyl-2-pyrrolidone through ANN for a preliminary energy assessment

We developed an artificial neural network (ANN) to predict mole fractions in the extractive distillation of an n-hexane and ethyl acetate mixture, which are common organic solvents in chemical and pharmaceutical manufacturing. The ANN was trained on 250 data pairs from simulations in DWSIM software....
