    Toluene/Water Solution

    But it doesn't boil at 110°C because of the water/toluene azeotrope at 85°C. All I want to know is where I can find out what the azeotrope boiling point is at reduced pressures?

    Toluene/Water Solution

    Yeah I mean the OM is a solid with a very very low vapour pressure, negligable compared to toluene. We are just boiling it off and not recyling anything.

    Toluene/Water Solution

    The OM is a large steroid molecule which is very soluble in toluene, it doesn't crytallise out until we reach about 20L of toluene in this process so we don't need to be concerned with it. I only mentioned it to explain that I'm not trying to concentrate the tolunene but I'm trying to...

    Toluene/Water Solution

    I have a molecule in the toluene solution so I am trying make it a more concentrated solution in terms of g/L.

    Toluene/Water Solution

    Yes, I want to concentrate my toluene solution down to 100L, but I don't care what the composition of the final solution is. I have a molecule in the solution so I just want to reduce the volume of the solution, the amount of water in the final solution doesn't matter for any downstream...

    Toluene/Water Solution

    I'm not looking to seperate the water and toluene, I don't care how much water is in the final solution, I'm simply looking to concentrate the solution from 1500L to about 100L. I need the VLE data to set the temperature for the distillation and probably model a constant volume distillation...

    Toluene/Water Solution

    I will have already done a phase seperation from water but there is some residual water left in the toluene because it is very slightly soluble. I've used ASPEN to try and get a VLE but the curve I get is all over the place, definietly not correct.

    Toluene/Water Solution

    Hi all, I'm looking at concentration a water wet toluene solution by distillation. I have about 1500L of toluene which I need to get down to about 100L. I understand the solubility of water in toluene to only be about 0.03% w/w (my toluene will be saturated with water) but I'm looking to do a...
