Distillation vs evaporation

Distillation vs evaporation, both methods used to separate mixtures of liquids, but they differ in how they achieve this separation. Distillation vs Evaporation Evaporation is a physical process that occurs when a liquid is heated to its boiling point, causing it to turn into a vapor. This vapor can thenContinue Reading

Distillation vs fractional distillation

Distillation vs fractional distillation, well; both methods used to separate liquids, but fractional distillation is a more sophisticated and efficient method of distillation. Distillation vs fractional distillation Distillation is a process in which a mixture of liquids is heated to create vapor, which is then condensed and collected in aContinue Reading

What are evaporators

This short article discuss what are evaporators and looks briefly in their different types. The article also looks at the advantages and disadvantages of evaporators. What are evaporators? What are evaporators? An evaporator is a device used to separate a liquid from a solution by boiling off the liquid andContinue Reading

What is membrane filtration

This short article will only give basic introduction that explains what is membrane filtration. Looking at their applications and advantages as well as disadvantages. Also looking briefly on the four types of membrane types that are commonly used in industries. What is membrane filtration? Membrane filtration is a separation processContinue Reading

Distillation columns versus separators

Distillation columns versus separators. Both used for separating and purifying liquids, but they differ in terms of the type of separation they perform and the methods they use. A distillation column is a large, tall vessel used in the chemical and petrochemical industries to separate a mixture of liquids intoContinue Reading

distillation

What is a distillation column? A distillation column is a vertical vessel used in the distillation of liquid mixtures to separate the mixture into its individual components based on their boiling points. The mixture is heated to produce vapours, which are then cooled and condensed back into a liquid form.Continue Reading

Gas blowdown time calculation

Gas blowdown time calculation is used to estimate the time required to evacuate gas from a section of gas pipeline. In emergencies or during routine testing in oil and gas industry gas blowdown time is critical part pf safety consideration. objectively the gas pipeline is isolated by closing the mainlineContinue Reading

Barlow Equation for pipe internal pressure

Barlow equation named after Perter Barlow, an English mathematician and physicist, is used to relate the hoop stress in the pipe wall to the internal pressure, pipe diameter, and wall thickness. Hoop stress and Longitudinal stress Hoop stress is mainly the stress that occurs along the pipe’s circumference direction whenContinue Reading

panhandle equation

Panhandle equation was developed by Eastern Pipe line company for the calculation of gas flow in transmission lines. In 1940s Panhandle A Equation was developed. In 1912 Weymouth developed the general gas flow equation so this equation was developed at a later stage. Panhandle Equation Panhandle A Equation Panhandle AContinue Reading

Weymouth equation for flow rate calculation

Weymouth equation is used for gas pipeline systems, when large pipe diameters are involved the Weymouth equation can be used to calculate the flow rate. The equation is also employed for compressible gases and high pressure gases. Below are two different forms that the Weymouth equation can be written in.Continue Reading
