    Análisis de la estática para la síntesis de furfural por destilación reactiva
    (Universidad de Cuenca, 2015-12) Aristizábal M., Valentina; Parra R., Daniela; Pisarenko, Yuri A.; Cardona A., Carlos Ariel
    Nowadays, there is a big attention paid on furan derivatives and catalytic processes, mainly to convert the sugars contained in lignocellulosic biomass. In this sense, the furfural also receives special attention as potential chemical building blocks for the production of bio products and biofuels. Due to the difficulties presented in the separation of furfural in the conventional process, this paper presents the separation analysis to obtain furfural of high purity from xylose dehydrated by reactive distillation as unconventional process. The basic theory of static analysis is used to acquire the best information of the reactive distillation process. This allows obtaining a technological scheme that achieves a mole fraction of about 0.9 furfural.
