Heat Exchanger Modeling in Process Simulation

Heat exchanger design and operability play a major role in the energy use, yield, and profitability of most chemical process industries (CPI) plants. Process simulation allows the engineer to explore the tradeoffs among achieving the optimal process yield, conserving the most energy, and...

Particle Size and Shape Characterization

The significance of particle technology cannot be understated in industrial processes that involve such products as toner, paint, cosmetics, pharmaceutical, food, cement, fine chemicals, detergents, catalysis, ceramics, powder metallurgy, abrasives, fertilizer and gasification — to name a...

Troubleshooting Alkanolamine Gas Treating Systems

An integral step in natural gas processing is the removal of the acid gas components such as carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide. Carbon dioxide must be removed prior to cryogenic separation of natural gas liquids, and hydrogen sulfide must be removed in order to comply with environmental...

Back to the Future on Energy

Energy is a very important factor in process automation. Energy efficiency enhancements were key sources of economic justification in the pioneering projects of the early 1960s and have grown in stature over the ensuing decades. Process automation-enabled improvements in energy usage have made...
