Potential alternatives for a fully thermally coupled four-product dividing wall column are addressed, emphasizing hydraulic design and column dimensioning aspects of importance for practical implementation of multi-partition wall configurations. Utilizing an industrially relevant aromatics processing plant case for evaluation and comparison of the cost-effectiveness of alternative configurations, this paper focuses on a new, minimum energy, four-product dividing wall column with two overhead product streams.
