This paper delves into the comparative study of tray and packed column pressure swing distillation systems, focusing on the separation of a ternary mixture containing ethanol, tetrahydrofuran (THF), and water. The study particularly emphasizes the production of 99.5 w/w% tetrahydrofuran from the downstream product of 1,4-butanediol synthesis via diethyl maleate. Pro/II simulation software is utilized to explore various system configurations, including sieve trays, valve trays, and packed columns. Material and energy balances are performed to ascertain stream compositions and energy demands. The investigation encompasses the effects of column operating pressure on condenser and reboiler temperatures, as well as the implications of utility streams. A rigorous distillation model is employed to compare valve tray, sieve tray, and random packing (utilizing Norton Super Intalox) column designs by varying the number of trays, reflux ratio, and second distillation column pressure. Heat exchangers are integrated into the model, and their areas and utility flow rates are computed and integrated into the economic assessment. Economic analysis, guided by Net Present Value (NPV) calculations over a 20-year span, drives the selection of the most cost-effective design. Results demonstrate that while all designs are energy-efficient, the packed column system emerges as the most economical choice, offering a comprehensive framework for the separation process. Furthermore, optimal design configurations and operating conditions for both tray and packed column systems are outlined, providing valuable insights for industrial applications.

Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamase (ESBL) producing Escherichia coli is a global cause of life threatening infections. We determined the presence of ESBL and carbapenemase production in clinical isolates of E. coli and their antibiotic susceptibility. Clinical isolates of community and hospital acquired E. coli from 220 patients seen at a tertiary hospital were evaluated. Antibiotic susceptibility testing was by the modified Kirby-Bauer protocol while ESBL production was determined by the Double Disk Synergy Test (DDST). Carbapenem resistance was confirmed by the Modified Hodge Test. Of the 220 isolates, 122 (55.5%) were from females;41 (18.6%) were ESBL positive. About 90% of the ESBL producing isolates were resistant to nine of the 15 antimicrobial agents tested. However, only one (2.4%) of the 41 ESBL producing isolates exhibited carbapenem resistance. The ESBL negative isolates were susceptible to Meropenem (100%), Cefepime (97.8%), Ceftriaxone (96.6%) and Cefotaxime (96.6%). All the ESBL producing isolates harbored detectable plasmids with sizes ranging from 2322 to 23,130 base pairs. Our findings show that although multidrug resistant ESBL producing E. coli are prevalent in both the hospital and the community in this environment, carbapenem resistance is still low. We recommend that institutions develop guidelines for the early phenotypic detection of ESBLs and carbapenem resistance.
