The sustainable development in separation-reaction processes involves a higher energy efficiency and pollutant reduction. The main interest of the analysis of the statics methodology is developed the optimal qualitative technological scheme with minimal data, the physicochemical information of the system, and the stoichiometry of the reaction. This results in a feasible intensified scheme flowsheet and a reactive distillation column (RD) that are then implemented in a reactive dividing wall column (RDWC) distillation to produce ethyl lactate from the esterification of lactic acid with ethanol. The RDWC configuration showed a reduction of 38% in the save net duty and an increase of 13% in the conversion compared with a conventional direct sequence. The analysis of the statics method presents an alternative in the design stage in a complex column, allowing for a feasible operation in different degrees of process intensification.

分离反应过程的可持续发展涉及更高的能源效率和减少污染物。静态方法分析的主要兴趣是开发具有最少数据的最佳定性技术方案、系统的物理化学信息和反应的化学计量。这导致了可行的强化方案流程图和反应蒸馏塔 (RD)，然后在反应隔壁塔 (RDWC) 蒸馏中实施，以通过乳酸与乙醇的酯化反应生产乳酸乙酯。与传统的直接序列相比，RDWC 配置显示节省净负荷减少了 38%，转换增加了 13%。静力学方法的分析在复杂柱的设计阶段提出了一种替代方案，
