McCabe Thiele: Partial Condenser
Why consider using a partial condenser?
• Desire vapor distillate?
• Need to control temperature in the column?
Concept:
o control distillation column temperatures
by controlling the operating pressure.
o Condenser design / column opn. P
o Minimum desirable condenser
temperature is ~ 49 oC (120 oF).
o Construction of column more expensive
at higher pressures (i.e. > 14.8 bar [200
psig])
o Bottoms T too high (decomposition or Tc
approached)
• Running a partial condenser lowers the
column operating pressure (i.e. don’t have to
fully condense the distillate product

Effect of Different Reflux Ratios
• Before we saw that..
• increasing reflux resulted in an enrichment of vapor stream
in the “lighter” component

Tie Together
• Found using McCabe-Thiele (knowing xD , xB , & feed condition):
o Nmin (at total reflux)
o Rmin (at infinite number of stages)
• If given actual R (or choose by R = factor * Rmin ) can find:
oN
o NF (optimum feed stage number)
Suggests there is a relation between N, Nmin, and Rmin.

Binary Shortcut Methods
McCabe-Thiele is good at showing procedure and helping explain concepts for
binary distillation. It can be extended to multiple feeds and side draws
(Wankat).
When consider multicomponent mixtures, McCabe-Thiele is not quite as
useful. However, having some shortcut methods to aid in final column
design is useful.
