A separation process is a method to achieve any phenomenon that converts a mixture of chemical substance into two or more distinct product mixtures, which may be referred to as mixture. At least one of which is enriched in one or more of the mixture’s constituents. Separations are crucial in chemical engineering. Since separations are ubiquitous in chemical plants and petroleum refineries, chemical engineers must be familiar with a variety of separation methods. There are a large number of types of separation processes, including distillation, extraction, absorption, membrane filtration, and so on. Each of these can also be used for purification, to varying degrees. This handbook introduces the importance of separations, the concept of equilibrium, mass transfer, and problem-solving methods.
