The effects of some independent variables,such as extraction pressure, temperature gradient of rectifying column and programmed pressure,on rectification were investigated.The results showed that programmed pressure is suitable for purification of EPA and DHA esters. Increase of column temperature gradient from bottom to top is one of the key elements in rectification. Furthermore, higher temperature gradient leads to better separation effect.展开更多
