Material Selection for Separating Acrylic Acid from Butyl Acrylate

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around selecting suitable materials for constructing a binary distillation column to separate acrylic acid from butyl acrylate, as part of a Chemical Engineering assignment. The user seeks guidance on relevant British/American standards for design temperature, pressure, and wall thickness calculations. Additionally, they request links to corrosion data tables specifically for butyl acrylate exposure to metals. There is a mention of finding resources for acrylic acid but difficulty in locating those for butyl acrylate. The user emphasizes the importance of seeking assistance for finding standards and data tables online.

In my Chemical engineering Course, I have an Engineering Materials assignment, which needs to be submitted by this Monday.

It contains questions based on the mechanical design of a binary distillation column that separates acrylic acid from butyl acrylate.


I'm required to select a material, which would be suitable for the construction of this specific column.

I hope someone can direct me to weblinks for this particular design.



Secondly, I'm required to calculate:

a, the design temperature and pressure of the column according to British/American standards

b, After calculating the wall thickness value, I'm required to compare it with the British/American standards


For these questions, I require access to the relevant British/American standards.

I am looking for the weblinks for the relevant British/American standards.

Can someone also provide a reference for the Data Tables for Corrosion Data of Butyl Acrylate being exposed to Metals

(i.e. Butyl Acrylate: Corrosion Data for Metals )


I was able to find it online for Acrylic Acid but couldn't do so for Butyl Acrylate
 
Hello dearest,

I find it extremely resourceful of you to find you posting your coursework question here. I'll ask the RA's to search for your profile. Better luck running away.
 
I am sorry for any misunderstanding; ... I wish to do the coursework myself.

I was looking for help in locating the relevant British/American standard online and some data tables online.

I thought that there is nothing wrong in seeking assistance in finding standards & data tables online.

If that is considered wrong, I would refrain to do so.
