Abstract

In the present study, the CO2 frost phenomenon of CH4-CO2 mixtures has been observed for the rational design of CO2 removal from natural gas using a controlled freeze out area. The CO2 frost conditions were estimated using the ZNE method and process simulation software (Aspen HYSYS® v7.3). The experiment was carried out using a double pipe heat exchanger (DPHE) with the concentration of CO2 in the gas mixture at 5 and 10% and pressure of the gas mixture from 1 to 20 bar. The equilibrium temperature predictions of the ZNE method and the process simulation software only had a slight difference, with a magnitude deviation of less than 1% for pressures below 20 bar and 3% for pressures in the range of 20-30 bar, respectively. In the experimental study, CO2 frost formation was detected at pressures of 1, 5, 10 and 20 bar. The locations of the initial CO2 frost formation were determined using a pressure drop indicator associated with the predicted frost temperatures obtained from the ZNE method and the process simulation software. For all studied variables, the locations of initial CO2 frost formation were found at 0.887-1.531 m from the inlet.

Abstract

Fossil fuels as the primary energy resources around the world cause significant negative effect on atmosphere. Recently, biodiesel, which primarily produced from renewable resources, has received great attention because of its environmental benefits. Higher chain of alcohols, such as butanol, may be used as solvent to produce biodiesel with glycerol as byproduct. In order to enhance the quality of glycerol as biodiesel side product which meets food and pharmaceutical standards, vapor-liquid equilibria (VLE) data for ternary systems consisting of 1-butanol, 2-methyl-1-propanol, glycerol and water are required to design and optimize the separation process of glycerol. In this work, the prediction of ternary VLE for (1-butanol / 2-methyl-1-propanol + glycerol + water) using UNIFAC model were determined at various temperatures and compositions and compared with the experimental data giving Average Absolute Deviations (AAD) less than 5.7%. The results indicated that UNIFAC was a reliable model for phase equilibria predictions in the mixtures containing of glycerol

Abstract

In this work, mixing rule of Sanches-Lacombe equation of state (SL-EoS) was developed for estimating vapor-liquid equilibria of solvent-polymer systems or solubility of solvent in polymer solutions. The model was derived by matching excess Gibbs energy of Sanches-Lacombe equation of state and that of group contribution model at zero pressure. Present model can be applied to wide range of pressure. In addition, this model covers systems with various molecular interactions, since functional group interaction parameters of UNIFAC-FV and UNIFAC-ZM models have been available for various groups.
