Distillation Column

Distillation column generated from a mathematical model. Industrial considerations atypical data features like noise, outliers, and missing data have been added, in order to obtain industrial conditions in the dataset.

1. Pressure of column (bar)
   2-15. Temperature at each tray (K)
2. Liquid flowrate (Kg mol/hour)
3. Vapor flowrate (Kg mol/hour)
4. Distillate flowrate (Kg mol/hour)
5. Bottoms flowrate (Kg mol/hour)
6. Feed flowrate (Kg mol/hour)
7. Molar concentration of ethanol (output)

There are 450 hours of operation at 0.1 hours of time sampling. This dataset has been used for soft-sensors validation and a new feature selection algorithm validation.
