2. INTRODUCTION
“Distillation is an unit operation which involves separation of a
vaporizable component from a multi-component system and
subsequent condensation of vapours.”
Distillation is a process of separating the component
substances from a liquid mixture by selective evaporation and
condensation.”
“Distillation is defined as the separation of the components of
a liquid mixture by a process involving vaporization and
subsequent condensation at another place.”

3. Membrane Assisted Distillation
Membrane-assisted distillation is the integration of
a membrane with a distillation process, which complement each
other to achieve a defined separation task.
Hybrid separation processes combine two or more unit operation,
which contribute to given separation task by means of different
physical phenomena.
Membrane-assisted distillation processes constitute one type of
hybrid separation process.
In a membrane separation, a feed mixture flows over a membrane,
which allows to molecules to pass through membrane and some
are rejected.

5. Advantages of membrane assisted distillation
Membrane assisted distillation offers significant potential for
the separation of close boiling or azeotropic mixture.
In contrast to distillation, membrane separation is not limited
by vapour liquid equilibrium(VLE) and thus overcome
azeotropes and distillation boundaries.
High selectivity, low energy consumption and compact
modular design .
