Economic, environmental, exergy (3E) analysis and multi-objective genetic algorithm optimization of isopropyl acetate production with hybrid reactive-extractive distillation

•Three sustainable processes of hybrid RED for producing IPAC are explored.•A hybrid enhancement process of RED coupled PV membrane system is proposed.•The feasibility of the established processes is evaluated from 3E performance. Isopropyl acetate (IPAC) is an important fine chemical intermediate w...
