answer the following questions :  A. Despite distillation presumably being energy-intensive, why were less energy-intensive separation processes not implemented? B. What are the average % reductions in capital and operating expenses using a divided wall column instead of two or more separate columns (Petlyuk configurations) for a general ternary mixture ?  C. In case of extractive distillation, what was the % reduction in energy savings for E-DWC vs. conventional ED? D. Using real numbers/percentages state how important choosing the right entrainer is for azeotropic distillation.  E. In case of azeotropic distillation, what was the % reduction in energy savings for            A-DWC vs. conventional AD?
