Multicomponent Distillation

Multicomponent Distillation is a distillation design methodology that separates three or more components in a single distillation column by exploiting differences in relative volatilities across multiple stages, distinguishing it from binary distillation through the complexity of compositional interactions and the need for rigorous phase equilibrium calculations.
