Explain why it is important to understand whether you have azeotropes in your process? Name some of the things that can be done if you do have azeotropes.
a) It's important to understand azeotropes as they affect distillation processes by altering boiling points. If azeotropes are present, techniques like pressure swing distillation or adding a third component can be employed.
b) Understanding azeotropes is irrelevant since modern distillation techniques can separate any mixture efficiently.
