Modeling and simulation of reactive distillation column for the production of dimethyl carbonate (dmc)

Modeling and simulation of reactive distillation column for the production of dimethyl carbonate (dmc) / Low Pui San
Tujuan utama penyelidikan ini adalah untuk membangunkan model simulasi bagi turus penyulingan bertindak balas untuk penghasilan dimetil karbonat (DMC) dengan menggunakan Aspen Plus sebagai platform pemodelan. Penyelidikan ini juga meliputi kajian terhadap kesan yang mempengaruhi reka bentuk dan keadaan operasi bagi sesuatu turus. Kajian ini bermula dengan pengesahan model matematik yang sesuai untuk pengisian simulasi iaitu Aspen Plus. Model yang dicadangkan telah disahkan kebolehan aplikasinya setelah hasil simulasi dibandingkan dengan data simulasi yang diterbitkan dari literatur dan hasil data dari Aspen Plus. Analisis and perbandingan telah dilakukan setelah simulasi lengkap and beroperasi. Prestasi turus penyulingan bertindak balas telah diperolehi setelah mengenalpasti konfigurasi turus dan keadaan operasi yang optima. Penghasilan propilena karbonat sehingga 94% telah diperolehi daripada simulasi dengan parameter turus yang optima. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ The main objective of this research is to develop a simulation model of reactive distillation column for the production of dimethyl carbonate using Aspen Plus as a modeling platform. In this research, the effects that influenced the design and operating condition of the column were also studied. It started with verify the mathematical models that suitable for the simulation software which is Aspen Plus. The proposed model was validated by comparing the simulated results obtained from the published data from literature and with results from Aspen Plus. Analysis and comparison has been performed after the simulation complete and converges. The performance of reactive distillation column was obtained by determining the optimum column configuration and operating conditions at 333K, 1 atm. A propylene carbonate conversion up to 94% was obtained through simulation with the optimized column parameter.
