Optimal distillation using thermodynamic geometry

The thermal efficiency of a distillation column may be improved by permitting heat exchange on every tray rather than only in the reboiler and the condenser. Thermodynamic length optimizations on discrete systems specify the optimal temperature of each tray and consequently the amount of heat to be added or withdrawn in order to maintain that temperature.
