DBM Lookup Utility

Distillation Boundary Maps are simplified representations of Residue Curve Maps that play a critical role in conceptualizing distillation processes. These maps visually depict the equilibrium behavior of ternary mixtures, providing valuable insights into feasible separation pathways and the effects of azeotropes by highlighting composition regions divided by distillation boundaries.

Traditional methods for determining Distillation Boundary Maps for ternary systems involve detailed knowledge of pure component and azeotropic properties, followed by intricate, step-by-step procedures. These methods require a deep understanding of nodes, saddles, and the ability to verify consistency and uniqueness, making the process time-consuming and complex.

This app introduces an innovative lookup procedure that simplifies and accelerates the creation of Distillation Boundary Maps. By requiring only the relative boiling points of pure components and azeotropes in a ternary system, the app streamlines the process, making it more user-friendly and efficient.
