Book Advanced Distillation Technologies

Download or read book Advanced Distillation Technologies written by Anton A. Kiss and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-02-26 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Distillation has historically been the main method for separating mixtures in the chemical process industry. However, despite the flexibility and widespread use of distillation processes, they still remain extremely energy inefficient. Increased optimization and novel distillation concepts can deliver substantial benefits, not just in terms of significantly lower energy use, but also in reducing capital investment and improving eco-efficiency. While likely to remain the separation technology of choice for the next few decades, there is no doubt that distillation technologies need to make radical changes in order to meet the demands of the energy-conscious society. Advanced Distillation Technologies: Design, Control and Applications gives a deep and broad insight into integrated separations using non-conventional arrangements, including both current and upcoming process intensification technologies. It includes: Key concepts in distillation technology Principles of design, control, sizing and economics of distillation Dividing-wall column (DWC) – design, configurations, optimal operation and energy efficient and advanced control DWC applications in ternary separations, azeotropic, extractive and reactive distillation Heat integrated distillation column (HIDiC) – design, equipment and configurations Heat-pump assisted applications (MVR, TVR, AHP, CHRP, TAHP and others) Cyclic distillation technology – concepts, modeling approach, design and control issues Reactive distillation – fundamentals, equipment, applications, feasibility scheme Results of rigorous simulations in Mathworks Matlab & Simulink, Aspen Plus, Dynamics and Custom Modeler Containing abundant examples and industrial case studies, this is a unique resource that tackles the most advanced distillation technologies – all the way from the conceptual design to practical implementation. The author of Advanced Distillation Technologies, Dr. Ir. Anton A. Kiss, has been awarded the Hoogewerff Jongerenprijs 2013. Find out more (website in Dutch)...

Book 23 European Symposium on Computer Aided Process Engineering

Download or read book 23 European Symposium on Computer Aided Process Engineering written by Haisheng Chen and published by Elsevier Inc. Chapters. This book was released on 2013-06-10 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although reactive distillation column represent a promising technology of process intensification, it is difficult to use for the separation of reaction systems with the lightest and heaviest reactants producing the light and heavy products. In order to overcome the difficulty, we propose novel reactive distillation columns with a top-bottom external recycle. The direction of the external recycle should be determined according the thermodynamic characteristics of the reaction operation involved. The process configurations favor considerably internal mass integration and internal energy integration between the reaction operation and the separation operation involved and help to enhance the thermodynamic efficiencies of the reactive distillation column. An effective procedure for process synthesis and design is developed, and three examples, i.e., an ideal quaternary exothermic reaction, an ideal quaternary endothermic one, and the esterification of lactic acid with methanol, are chosen to evaluate the configurations proposed. The obtained results show that they are definitely superior to those with two or one reactive sections at their both or either ends in the aspect of capital investment and operating cost. They are also demonstrated to be highly competitive alternative to the conventional reactor/separator system.

Book Process Design and Advanced Control Strategies for Model based Reactive Distillation Columns

Download or read book Process Design and Advanced Control Strategies for Model based Reactive Distillation Columns written by Budi Husodo Bisowarno and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The results indicate that a proper control scheme (cascade two-point control scheme) with an appropriate controller tuning can offer an alternative of model-based nonlinear controller for reactive distillation. Operability and optimisation of the existing reactive distillation column were investigated using set-point optimisation method. Despite a fixed column configuration (number of stages and feed point) and a fixed control configuration (pairing of controlled and manipulated variables), the operating conditions were optimised to maximise profitability while a set of safety, operating and product quality constraints and specifications are satisfied. The set-point optimisation framework was then used to provide a basis for a supervisory control system.
