BTX separation via dividing-wall column

Benzene/toluene/ethylbenzene split into three purified products by a single rigorous dividing-wall column (prefractionator + two coupled main columns) instead of two ordinary columns in series — the thermally-coupled route real DWC retrofits use.

DME synthesis via reactive distillation

Methanol dehydrates to dimethyl ether over the reactive stages of a column — reaction and separation in one shell, pulling DME overhead while unconverted methanol and water leave the bottoms (Peng-Robinson EoS avoids the missing UNIFAC group-decomposition for ethers that blocks this under an activity-coefficient package).
