Optimation Condition Operation of Distillation to produce 2-EHA using ChemSep Version 8.23

Abstract

A new methodology for optimation column distillation process has been developed not only by manual calculation but recently technology take in the forward and improving of any simulator available to use. Sophiscated technology of simulator has been used for this optimation as well as Aspen Hysys is available for obtaining the best way of production plant. Simulator use a variety of thermodinamics calculation to operate and it depends on the type of distillation, phase of the components and operation condition of the simulation. In this paper, a critical review of optimation condition concern to utilize simulators capability including selection of thermodynamics property packages, test of several variable operation condition especially on the temperature and pressure also the combining and correction the value of the composition polymerization of acrylic acid. For future project commissioning of industrial plant make use of the simulator such as Aspen Hysys is highly recommend to hold significant potential and great promise for further evaluation, development and application.
