1,3-butadiene, bd is produced from c4-cut by extractive distillation. the separation of 1,3-butadiene from c4-cut is not possible through the conventional distillation processes, because several mixtures have consisted of close boiling points constituents and make azeotrope. the basf extraction distillation process in bd unit of jam and amirkabir petrochemical company improves the relative vola...

Eco-efficiency is generally defined as the ratio of an economic and environmental variable. This interpretation also cited in connection to its most popular implementation, known “BASF eco-efficiency portfolio analysis”. There is, however, something strange about this. A easily visualized a slope, but BASF’s method working with distance, which can be formulated weighted sum, not ratio. Upon clo...

Copper trimesate (Cu-BTC) MOF has been pointed out as a promising adsorbent for separating carbon dioxide from methane. However, MOF’s need to be shaped prior to their use in packed bed adsorbers in order to reduce pressure drop; on the other hand, the production of mechanically resistant shaped bodies reduces their adsorption performance. In this work, Cu-BTC tablets provided by BASF are evalu...
