Unit Operations

Process steps following chemical engineering unit operation principles

#	Operation	Description
1	Reactant Mixing	Mix ethanol and acetic acid
2	Esterification	H₂SO₄ catalyst at 70-80°C
3	Azeotropic Distillation	Remove water as ternary azeotrope
4	Neutralization	Wash with Na₂CO₃ solution
5	Drying	Distill with CaCl₂ or sieves
6	Product Distillation	Final distillation to >99%
