Industrial Applications of Spinning Cone Column Technology: a Review
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Spinning Cone Column (SCC) is a mechanically assisted gas-liquid contacting device which has been successfully applied to a broad range of distillation processes in the food and beverage industries. SCC technology is now being adopted for a variety of specialised tasks in the chemical and process industries. In this review, the technology is described and its operating principles explained. An account of the evolution of the technology, from isotope enrichment to the separation of aroma compounds from food and beverage streams, is presented. The efficacy of SCC technology in food and beverage processing has prompted the investigation of potential uses with non-food materials. The development of non-food applications is now proceeding rapidly: removal of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from highly viscous polymeric suspensions, and the continuous removal of volatile fermentation by-products are described to illustrate the growth of this powerful technology.

Comaprison of Mass-Transfer Efficiencies of Scc and Structured Packing
In a previous paper, pressure drop, flooding and mass-transfer characteristics of a novel pilot-scale distillation column called spinning cone column (SCC) were presented. Here, we present the result of comparison of mass-transfer efficiencies of SCC and structured packing. Comparison of SCC and structured packing mass-transfer characteristics show that the gas and liquid-side height of transfe...
