Abstract
Production of alcohol beverages will become an important farm business in the coming years after Taiwan became member of WTO. Brandy made from tropical fruits will be one of the major prominence products. To design a still for the purpose is a key of success for the newborn industry. In this study a pack column still was designed and studied experimentally, graphic control software Labview was used to control condensation temperature. Alcohol concentration in the distillate could thus be controlled easily. ChemCad software was used to simulate alcohol production as well as changes of other trace compounds during distillation. The software could be used in further studies to find optimal operating conditions for the still to produce better quality brandy.
