The Optimum Reflux Ratio (R 0) is that at which the total cost of the distillation is a minimum, taking into account the capital cost of the column (which depends on the number of theoretical plates) and running cost, which depends on the reflux ratio.ithin the 40 to 140 molecular weight range, distillation is used. In 1992, Darton estimated the world-wide throughput of distillation columns as Oil Refining, 5 billion tonnes per year and petrochemicals, 130 million tonnes per year.

Servers interact with client users and other servers across one or more business networks. Storage is any kind of technology that holds information as data. Information can take any form including file data, multimedia, telephony data and Web data, data from sensors or future formats. Storage includes volatile random access memory (RAM) as well as non-volatile tape, hard disk and solid-state flash drives.
