    Abstract: A continuous vacuum distillation system for separating one or more components of a multi-component composition by distillation, including a plurality of distillation columns, including a stripping column and a rectification column, wherein at least some of the distillation columns are configured according to an indirect split arrangement of coupled sections. In some embodiments, a near steady-state pressure condition operating range of 15 mmHg to 85 mmHg is obtained, with an operating temperature of less than 100° F., where the a near steady-state condition includes a nearly unchanged pressure condition across multiple stages. In some embodiments, processing across all stages occurs as a closed system.

    Abstract: A distillation system and process for separating a multi-component feed mixture in a distillation system comprising a first distillation column having a first fired reboiler, and at least a second distillation column having a second heat-exchange reboiler, comprising the steps of a) introducing the feed mixture to the first column, and separating into at least a first top and a first bottom product; b) taking part of the first bottom product for providing heat to the second reboiler as a utility stream; and c) feeding part of said utility stream after heat-exchange as main feed to the second column for further separation. This process allows significant energy savings, by reduction of the amount of external heat required for the fired reboiler and omission of a conventionally used heat-exchanger.
