3. Separator

2-Phase Separator

3-Phase Separator

Why do we need Separation ???

Disperse Phase can have undesirable effects, i.e:

1. Steam which has a little moisture entrained in it can leave undesirable silica deposits on superheater tube

2. Water carried over into turbine from a boiler can erode the blades.

3. Gas carried under into pump from a vessel can erode the impeller.

2. Connect heater and cooler with one single energy stream

3. Replace heater and cooler with Unit Heat Exchaner

4. Use Recycle Block if the calculation seems difficult to be matched.

Distillation

• Distillation process use 40% of energy in a chemical plant.

• The traditional approach for solving distillation columns uses the concept of equilibrium or theoretical stages. This concept assumes the vapor and liquid phases leaving any stage are in thermodynamic equilibrium with each other.

Principle

Minimum number of tray

Parameter adjustment

Design of Distillation Column

Obtain:

• Operating pressure

Obtain:

• Initial value of number of tray

• Initial value of feed stage

Optimization

• Design a distillation column to get propene in top stream with purity 96%

(mole).

Fluid Package Peng-Robinson

• Function : used when there is a reaction occurs in the process

simulation

• There are 6 type of reactors provided by hysys: 1. General reactors consist of : Gibbs Reactor, Equilibrium

Reactor, Conversion reactor, Yield Shift Reactor 2. Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR) 3. Plug Flow Reactor (PFR)

• Before begin the simulation it is important to describe the

reaction on the hysys simulation basis manager.

11. Reactor

Type of Reactor

Can be used when we do not know the reaction sets

Can be used for modelling conversion reactions

Can be used for modelling equlibrium reactions

can be used for complex reactors where no model is available

CSTR Reactor

The CSTR is a vessel in which Kinetic, Heterogeneous Catalytic and Simple Rate reactions can be performed. The conversion in the reactor depends on the rate expression of the reactions associated with the reaction type.

PFR Reactor

The PFR can modelled Kinetic, Heterogeneous Catalytic and Simple Rate reactions.
