Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Distillation processes in chemical industries have shown significant roles for separating valuable compounds from a mixture. In a specific separation process like separation of perfumes, essential oils, and pharmaceutical products, batch distillation is somehow preferable than continuous one. Batch distillation, however, in these separation processes is advantageous, particularly in the flexibility of fluctuating concentration of feed and products, and in changing production capacity based on market demand. In addition, the separation can be performed in only single batch distillation column for all the changing conditions. Due to the dynamic behavior of the operation of batch distillation that leads to more difficult operation, such efforts have been done to attain the desired specifications and, at the same time, to increase the operability. The efforts include both the design and operation of batch distillation. This research focuses on the investigation of separation behavior of multivessel batch distillation for multicomponent mixtures. The distillation unit used in this research consists of two columns with a vessel between the columns, a reflux vessel on the top of the column, and a reboiler (still pot). The experimental data are validated by simulation. Several cases of separation processes are represented by case studies as follows: Top product recovery, removal of light and heavy impurities, and removal of middle boiling component. By using an ideal ternary mixture consisting of ethanol, 1-propanol, and n-butanol, the case studies were used to investigate the separation behavior. It is found that for the case of top product recovery, increasing the vessel holdup of the middle vessel did not make a significant effect to the increase of ethanol purity in top vessel. However, an increase of ethanol purity in top vessel was obtained by simultaneously increasing the middle vessel holdup and reducing the holdup of top vessel. In this case, reducing the top vessel holdup of 50% results in the maximum achievable ethanol purity in top vessel of 96%. For the case of removal of light and heavy impurities, the concern was on the trade-off between product purity and product recovery. An agreement was found to have 91% purity of 1-propanol in the middle vessel with recovery of 74%. However, if it is desired to produce high purity product with suffering on the product recovery, reprocessing the top and bottom product can be carried out to recover the middle component in another batch. In addition, for the case of removing a middle boiling component from a mixture, increasing the middle vessel holdup did not give significant effect to the ethanol purity in top vessel. This may, therefore, be uneconomical to carry out since it leads to more losses of ethanol in middle vessel. An additional investigation on an introduction of slop vessels in the operation of multivessel batch distillation was also discussed in this thesis through simulation works. For the case studies discussed, it is found that slop vessel holdup and slop vessel position simultaneously give significant effects on the product purity of respective vessels.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Distillation Principles and Practice Second Edition covers all the main aspects of distillation including the thermodynamics of vapor/liquid equilibrium, the principles of distillation, the synthesis of distillation processes, the design of the equipment, and the control of process operation. Most textbooks deal in detail with the principles and laws of distilling binary mixtures. When it comes to multi-component mixtures, they refer to computer software nowadays available. One of the special features of the second edition is a clear and easy understandable presentation of the principles and laws of ternary distillation. The right understanding of ternary distillation is the link to a better understanding of multi-component distillation. Ternary distillation is the basis for a conceptual process design, for separating azeotropic mixtures by using an entrainer, and for reactive distillation, which is a rapidly developing field of distillation. Another special feature of the book is the design of distillation equipment, i.e. tray columns and packed columns. In practice, empirical know-how is preferably used in many companies, often in form of empirical equations, which are not even dimensionally correct. The objective of the proposed book is the derivation of the relevant equations for column design based on first principles. The field of column design is permanently developing with respect to the type of equipment used and the know-how of two-phase flow and interfacial mass transfer.

This book was released on 2011-12-06 with total page 553 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hands-on guidance for the design, control, and operation of azeotropic distillation systems Following this book's step-by-step guidance, readers learn to master tested and proven methods to overcome a major problem in chemical processing: the distillation and separation of azeotropes. Practical in focus, the book fully details the design, control, and operation of azeotropic distillation systems, using rigorous steady-state and dynamic simulation tools. Design and Control of Distillation Systems for Separating Azeotropes is divided into five parts: Fundamentals and tools Separations without adding other components Separations using light entrainer (heterogeneous azeotropic distillation) Separations using heavy entrainer (extractive distillation) Other ways for separating azeotropes The distillation methods presented cover a variety of important industrial chemical systems, including the processing of biofuels. For most of these chemical systems, the authors explain how to achieve economically optimum steady-state designs. Moreover, readers learn how to implement practical control structures that provide effective load rejection to manage disturbances in throughput and feed composition. Trade-offs between steady-state energy savings and dynamic controllability are discussed, helping readers design and implement the distillation system that best meets their particular needs. In addition, economic and dynamic comparisons between alternative methods are presented, including an example of azeotropic distillation versus extractive distillation for the isopropanol/water system. With its focus on practical solutions, Design and Control of Distillation Systems for Separating Azeotropes is ideal for engineers facing a broad range of azeotropic separation problems. Moreover, this book is recommended as a supplemental text for undergraduate and graduate engineering courses in design, control, mass transfer, and bio-processing.

Download or read book Batch Processing written by Urmila Diwekar and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2014-02-25 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although batch processing has existed for a long time, designing these processes and unit operations has been considered an onerous task that required computational efforts. Design of these processes is made more complex because of the time dependent nature of the process and the allowable flexibility. More often than not, every unit encounters optimal control problems. Therefore, traditional design books have not covered batch processing in detail. Filling this void, Batch Processing: Modeling and Design describes various unit operations in batch and bio-processing as well as design methods for these units. Topics include: Batch distillation operating modes and configurations Batch absorption operations based on the solubility difference Batch adsorption based on differential affinity of various soluble molecules to solid absorbents Batch chromatography for measuring a wide variety of thermodynamic, kinetic, and physico-chemical properties Batch crystallization where a phase is used to find the supersaturation at which point material crystallizes Batch drying that stresses the phase diagram of water to describe this operation Batch filtration using a porous medium or screen to separate solids from liquids Batch centrifugation where centrifugal force is used for separation Batch processes are widely used in pharmaceutical, food, and specialty chemicals where high value, low volume products are manufactured. Recent developments in bio-based manufacturing also favor batch processes because feed variations can be easily handled in batch processes. Further, the emerging area of nanomaterials manufacturing currently uses batch processes as they are low volume, high energy intensive processes. With examples, case studies, and more than 100 homework problems, this book describes the unit operations in batch and bioprocessing and gives students a thorough grounding in the numerical methods necessary to solve these design problems.

This book was released on 2022-06-01 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a comprehensive optimization-based theory and framework that exploits the synergistic interactions and tradeoffs between process design and operational decisions that span different time scales. Conventional methods in the process industry often isolate decision making mechanisms with a hierarchical information flow to achieve tractable problems, risking suboptimal, even infeasible operations. In this book, foundations of a systematic model-based strategy for simultaneous process design, scheduling, and control optimization is detailed to achieve reduced cost and improved energy consumption in process systems. The material covered in this book is well suited for the use of industrial practitioners, academics, and researchers. In Chapter 1, a historical perspective on the milestones in model-based design optimization techniques is presented along with an overview of the state-of-the-art mathematical tools to solve the resulting complex problems. Chapters 2 and 3 discuss two fundamental concepts that are essential for the reader. These concepts are (i) mixed integer dynamic optimization problems and two algorithms to solve this class of optimization problems, and (ii) developing a model based multiparametric programming model predictive control. These tools are used to systematically evaluate the tradeoffs between different time-scale decisions based on a single high-fidelity model, as demonstrated on (i) design and control, (ii) scheduling and control, and (iii) design, scheduling, and control problems. We present illustrative examples on chemical processing units, including continuous stirred tank reactors, distillation columns, and combined heat and power regeneration units, along with discussions of other relevant work in the literature for each class of problems.
