Multiscale simulation of separation process for low-concentration crotonaldehyde in vinyl acetate production

Key Points

• The central aim is to provide vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) data for separating low-concentration crotonaldehyde from other components.
• Conducted multiscale simulation of the separation process
• Analyzed vapor-liquid equilibrium data relevant to crotonaldehyde
• Explored methods to achieve efficient separation of acetic acid and crotonaldehyde
• Generated VLE data that support the separation process
• Demonstrated feasibility of separating acetic acid from crotonaldehyde in a simulation setting
