specialty chemical distillation

Solve complex separation challenges with confidence

Specialty chemical distillation requires more than standard column design.

It demands deep expertise in thermodynamics, phase behavior, and process integration, especially when dealing with:

  • Close-boiling components
  • Heat-sensitive materials
  • High-purity or ultra-low impurity specifications
  • Multi-component separations
  • Solvent recovery and reuse systems
  • Emissions and sustainability constraints

EPIC’s engineers design systems that address these challenges while ensuring scalability, operability, and long-term reliability.

From concept through startup, EPIC delivers fully integrated systems tailored to your chemistry and production goals.

Our Capabilities Include:

  • Process design & simulation
  • Pilot-to-production scale-up
  • Column sizing & configuration
  • Tray & packing selection
  • Reboiler, condenser, & heat integration design
  • Skid fabrication to tight tolerances
  • Full system integration with upstream or downstream processes
  • Startup & commissioning at production rates

Result: A system that works the first time—and keeps working.
