Preferred embodiments are directed o to process monitoring and/or process control for unit operations involving endpoint determination of a distillation, for example, as > applied to a liquid-component-switching operation (e.g., a solvent switching operation), a liquid-liquid separation operation, a solute ~ concentration operation, a dispersed-phase concentration operation, among others.
