Book Advances in Distillation Retrofit

Download or read book Advances in Distillation Retrofit written by Nguyen Van Duc Long and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-09-18 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the current state of the art in the retrofit of existing distillation processes using advanced distillation techniques. Highlighting concept and practical application rather than theory, it emphasizes the use of advanced process integration and intensification techniques, such as multi-effect distillation, heat pump assisted distillation, thermally coupled distillation, dividing wall column, reactive distillation, and innovative hybrid systems. As a thermal separation method, distillation is one of the most important and widely used technologies in the chemical process industry. While it has many advantages, one major drawback is its large energy requirement, which can significantly influence overall plant profitability. The increasing cost of energy has forced industry to reduce its energy requirement, but simultaneously there has been a need to increase capacity and output due to heightened demand. To accomplish this, the retrofit of distillation processes to increase efficiency and output has become a crucial issue. This book describes the use of advanced process integration and process intensification techniques to carry out effective distillation retrofit. Written by leading researchers in distillation process, process integration, process intensification, and process retrofit, the book presents a comprehensive review of contemporary advanced distillation techniques which can be employed in grass-root systems and retrofit. It is a valuable source of information for undergraduate and postgraduate students of chemical engineering, practicing process designers and chemical engineers.

Book 11th International Symposium on Process Systems Engineering   PSE2012

Download or read book 11th International Symposium on Process Systems Engineering PSE2012 written by Iftekhar A Karimi and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-09-09 with total page 1804 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the PSE community continues its focus on understanding, synthesizing, modeling, designing, simulating, analyzing, diagnosing, operating, controlling, managing, and optimizing a host of chemical and related industries using the systems approach, the boundaries of PSE research have expanded considerably over the years. While early PSE research was largely concerned with individual units and plants, the current research spans wide ranges of scales in size (molecules to processing units to plants to global multinational enterprises to global supply chain networks; biological cells to ecological webs) and time (instantaneous molecular interactions to months of plant operation to years of strategic planning). The changes and challenges brought about by increasing globalization and the the common global issues of energy, sustainability, and environment provide the motivation for the theme of PSE2012: Process Systems Engineering and Decision Support for the Flat World. Each theme includes an invited chapter based on the plenary presentation by an eminent academic or industrial researcher Reports on the state-of-the-art advances in the various fields of process systems engineering Addresses common global problems and the research being done to solve them

Book Optimization Approaches for Heat Integration and Distillation Network Synthesis

Download or read book Optimization Approaches for Heat Integration and Distillation Network Synthesis written by Lingxun Kong and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We propose optimization-based approaches for heat integration and distillation network synthesis. For heat integration, we propose a mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) model for simultaneous process synthesis and utility targeting with general (i.e. classified and unclassified) streams and phase changes. To incorporate capital cost in the optimization, we propose an MINLP model based on the concept of composite-curve-based area targeting, which allows us to estimate both utility and heat exchanger area costs during simultaneous process synthesis and heat integration. Finally, we introduce a transshipment-based approach for simultaneous process synthesis and heat exchanger network synthesis. All three models are tailored to deal with variable stream temperature, flowrate, and hot/cold identity. For distillation column design, we propose a McCabe-Thiele-inspired MINLP approach for both simple and complex columns. The approach utilizes piecewise linear functions to approximate complex VLE relationship and thus ensures tractability without jeopardizing accuracy. The piecewise linear approximating (PWLA) function is obtained by solving a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model which is developed separately. The proposed fitting model determines the optimal location of the break points, allowing us to (1) minimize fitting error given a fixed number of segments, or (2) find the minimum number of function segments for a given error tolerance. Finally, we study a new challenging problem in distillation network synthesis: how to synthesize a distillation sequence when streams can have variable, including zero, component flows, which is common when the distillation network is simultaneously designed with the reactor network. To address this, we introduce a superstructure-based method for distillation sequence synthesis using a "matrix" representation. Departing from existing methods, we consider more than one stream that couples the reactor and distillation networks and the proposed method determines the optimal destinations of these streams in the distillation network. We also generalize the Underwood method to account for zero-flows and unknown key components prior to optimization.
