Abstract
An estimate has been obtained of the energy consumption on 1 mol of separated mixture based on thermodynamic balances for processes that use mechanical and heat energy. Only irreversible losses depend on the order of separation for mixtures in mechanical systems, while for the systems using the heat, the order of separation also affects the reversible energy consumption. In the latter case, in order to obtain a reversible estimate of the heat consumption, one should solve the problem of selecting the order of separation. An algorithm has been obtained for its solution that enables one to approximately choose the order of separation at the stage of preliminary calculations knowing only the properties of the feed.
