| dc.description.abstract | A modified form of the "Complex Method" of Box is presented for solving a variety of optimization problems involving conventional and complex distillation columns. Typical of the problems solved are (1) the determination of the minimum number of stages required to effect a specified separation at a given reflux ratio, (2) the optimum economic design of a distillation column, and (3) the minimization of the reflux ratio required to effect a specified separation for an existing column. | en |
