De Luzuriaga, E.R.  1980.  There are many processes and many dehydrants available in the production of water free alcohol. There are: the azeotropic pressure process, the azeotropic non-pressure process, the quicklime and other solid dehydrant pressure/vacuum process, etc. At VMC the azeotropic non-pressure process is adopted and use of benzene as the dehydrant. After condensation and cooling, the effluent from the dehydrating column will be 99.5+% dry or water free alcohol. Distillation and Rectification in the Production of Water Free Alcohol.
