Separation processes are a multi-billion dollar business. In the United States alone there are more than 40,000 distillation columns which require approximately 7.0 % of the total US energy consumption for operation. Azeotropic data and zeotropic information are essential for the optimal design and synthesis of distillation processes. The book highlights the best way to separate azeotropic systems using hybrid or specialized distillation processes such as pressure swing, azeotropic or extractive distillation. This extensive two-volume compilation covers nearly all data currently available for binary and higher systems. This knowledge is the key for the successful separation of these azeotropic systems. The reader will be inspired by the sheer volume of data for more than 18800 systems involving approximately 1700 compounds. These data are carefully evaluated, documented and arranged according to molecular formula for easy access. The best thermal separation conditions for industry and environmental protection can be achieved through this practical source. In addition to chemical engineers and physical chemists, scientists active in process engineering and environmental protection and will find themselves fully equipped to deal with any separation task.
