In the plant, ammonia is produced from synthesis gas containing hydrogen and nitrogen in the ratio of approximately 3:1. Besides these components, the synthesis gas contains inert gases such as argon and methane to a limited extent. The source of H2 is demineralized water and the hydrocarbons in the natural gas. The source of N2 is the atmospheric air. The source of CO2 is the hydrocarbons in the natural gas feed. Product ammonia and CO2 is sent to urea plant. The present article intended the description of ammonia plant for natural gas based plants and the possible material balance of some section.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.

four products:
▪ C5-rich bottoms
▪ C3-rich distillate
▪ iC4-rich distillate
▪ nC4-rich bottoms

▪ For each column:
▪ Feed components are partitioned between the overhead
and the bottoms according to a split fraction or split ratio
that depends on:
▪ (1) the component thermodynamic and transport properties
▪ (2) the number of stages
▪ (3) the vapor and liquid flows through the column.

▪ Typically, there is at least 1 key component which we base the separation.
▪ More likely, there are TWO main key components:
▪ Light key → will be separated on tops
▪ Heavy key → will be separated on bottoms
▪ An example of a distillation of:
▪ Water & Ethanol:
▪ Heavy key → will not vaporize readily (water)
▪ Light key → will vaporize readily (ethanol)

▪ IN many processes, we want to purify or recover a Key Component.
▪ The concept of Product Recovery is related to this:
▪ Total amount of product going “in”

▪ In many processes, we might not be able to recover 100% of the species “i” in the
feed.

▪ The concept of product purity is related to the % of composition of our product of interest in the
final stream or product stream.
▪ Typically, the higher purity, the better
▪ In engineering “high” purities are related to:
▪ 95%
▪ 99%
▪ 99.9% …. 99.99999%
▪ Impurities are all the other materials affecting the product purity.
▪ 5%
▪ 1%

▪ Sometimes, product recovery must be sacrificed in order to achieve a higher purity
or vice versa:
▪ A product’s purity must be sacrificed (decreased) in order to make the process
feasible.
▪ Trade-offs are very common in process design.

▪ The three-column recovery process (right):
▪ Is only one of five (1/5) alternative sequences of distillation
operations
▪ Since each column has a single feed and produces an overhead
product and a bottoms product:
▪ Multiple sequencing might take place.
57. www.ChemicalEngineeringGuy.com
▪ Example:
▪ Consider a hydrocarbon feed that consists:
▪ propane (C3)
▪ isobutane (iC4)
▪ n-butane (nC4)
▪ isopentane (iC5)
▪ n-pentane (nC5).
▪ A sequence of distillation columns is to be used to separate the
feed into three nearly pure products of:
▪ Individual Product Lines: C3, iC4, and nC4
▪ A final (multicomponent) product of iC5/nC5.

▪ It is impossible to “set” a set of rules for processes
▪ Engineers use heuristics which typically help in quick/informal design of Processes
▪ They are based on straight forward logic, which must be then analyzed thoroughly.
▪ These must be used for initial screening and must be useful and easy to apply, as
well as not requiring column design or cost estimation.
▪ As you can imagine:
▪ These heuristics sometimes conflict with each other
▪ Thus a clear choice is not always possible
▪ This is great for ENGINEERS!

1. Remove unstable, corrosive, or chemically reactive components early in the
sequence.
2. Remove final products one by one as overhead distillates.
3. Remove, early in the sequence, those components of greatest molar percentage
in the feed.
4. Make the most difficult separations in the absence of the other components.
5. Leave for later in the sequence those separations that produce final products of
the highest purities.
6. Select the sequence that favors near-equimolar amounts of overhead and bottoms
in each column.

▪ Remove the easiest to remove impurities 1st
▪ Make the most difficult & expensive separation later
▪ Select processes that make use of greatest differences in the properties of the product
▪ Select the sequence processes exploiting different separations

▪ Some separation operations are incapable of making a sharp split between key
components
▪ This will affect the desired recovery of only a single component.
▪ The split ratio (SR), split fraction (SF), recovery, or purity that can be achieved for
the single key component depends on a number of factors
▪ For the simplest case of a single separation stage, these factors include:
▪ (1) the relative molar amounts of the two phases leaving the separator
▪ (2) thermodynamic, mass transport, and other component properties.
64. www.ChemicalEngineeringGuy.com
▪ For multistage separators, additional factors are the number of stages and their
configurations.
▪ If the feed enters near the middle of the column as in distillation it has both
enriching and stripping sections, and it is often possible to achieve a sharp
separation between two key components.
▪ The enriching section purifies the light key and the stripping section purifies the
heavy key.
65. www.ChemicalEngineeringGuy.com
▪ For these, a measure of the relative degree of separation between two key
components, i and j, is the separation factor, SP.
▪ SP is defined in terms of the component splits as measured by the compositions of
the two products, (1) and (2):

▪ SP is readily converted to the following forms in terms of split fractions or split
ratios
▪ Achievable values of SP depend on the number of stages and the properties of
components i and j.
▪ In general, components i and j and products 1 and 2 are selected so that SPi,j > 1.0.

▪ then, from SRi = 100 and SRj = 0.01
▪ Results to a corresponding to a sharp separation.
▪ However:

▪ Analysis:
▪ The SP in Column C1 is small because:
▪ the split for the heavy key, iC5H12, is not sharp.
▪ The largest SP occurs in Column C2, where:
▪ the separation is relatively easy because of the large volatility
difference.
▪ Much more difficult is the butane-isomer split in Column C3:
▪ where only a moderately sharp split is achieved.

▪ The most important feed conditions are:
▪ Composition
▪ Flow rate
▪ All the other conditions
▪ temperature, pressure, and phase
▪ can be altered to fit a particular operation
▪ However:
▪ Feed vaporization
▪ Condensation of a vapor feed
▪ Compression of a vapor feed

▪ Separations using barriers or solid agent:
▪ Perform best on dilute feeds.
▪ The cost of recovering and purifying a chemical depends
strongly on:
▪ Initial Concentration of the feed.
▪ Typically:
▪ the more dilute the feed → the higher the product price.
75. www.ChemicalEngineeringGuy.com
▪ When a very pure product is required:
▪ large differences in volatility or solubility or significant numbers of stages are needed for
chemicals in commerce.
▪ For biochemicals, especially proteins, very expensive separation methods may be
required.
76. www.ChemicalEngineeringGuy.com
▪ Operations based on barriers are more expensive than operations based on the use
of a solid agent or the creation or addition of a phase.
▪ All separation equipment is limited to a maximum size.
▪ For capacities requiring a larger size:
▪ parallel units must be provided.

▪ Except for size constraints or fabrication problems:
▪ capacity of a single unit can be doubled
▪ → for an additional investment cost of about 60%.
▪ If two parallel units are installed:
▪ the additional investment is 100%.
▪ For new processes:
▪ it is never certain that product specifications will be met.
78. www.ChemicalEngineeringGuy.com
▪ Providing multiple stages and whether parallel units may be required is an issue to
account depending on the processes:
▪ Distillation & absorption → Easy to add stages
▪ Crystallization & Drying → Not so easy
▪ Parallel Unit requirements:
▪ Distillation & Absorption → No need, use stages
▪ Crystallization & Drying → Required, no stages available
▪ Maximum equipment size is determined by:
▪ height limitations
▪ shipping constraints

▪ For each of the following binary mixtures, a separation operation is suggested.
▪ Explain why the operation will or will not be successful.
▪ (a) Separation of air into oxygen-rich and nitrogen-rich products by distillation.

▪ Solution of (a) Separation of air into oxygen-rich and nitrogen-rich products by
distillation.
• The normal boiling points of O2 (183C) and N2 (195.8C) are
sufficiently different that they can be separated by
distillation, but elevated pressure and cryogenic
temperatures are required.

▪ Solution of (b) Separation of m-xylene from p-xylene by distillation.
▪ The close normal boiling points of m-xylene (139.3C) and pxylene (138.5C) make
separation by distillation impractical.
▪ However, their widely different melting points of 47.4C for m-xylene and 13.2C for
p-xylene make crystallization the separation method of choice.
84. www.ChemicalEngineeringGuy.com
▪ Solution of (c) Separation of benzene and cyclohexane by distillation.
▪ The normal boiling points of benzene (80.1C) and cyclohexane (80.7C) preclude a
practical separation by distillation.
85. www.ChemicalEngineeringGuy.com
▪ Solution of (c) Separation of benzene and cyclohexane by distillation.
• Their melting points are also close, at 5.5C for benzene and
6.5C for cyclohexane, making crystallization also impractical.
• The method of choice is to use distillation in the presence of
phenol (normal boiling point of 181.4C), which reduces the
volatility of benzene, allowing nearly pure cyclohexane to be
obtained.
• The other product, a mixture of benzene and phenol, is
readily separated in a subsequent distillation operation.

▪ Solution of (d) Separation of isopropyl alcohol and water by distillation.
▪ The normal boiling points of:
▪ isopropyl alcohol (82.3C)
▪ water (100.0C)
▪ seem to indicate that they could be separated by distillation.
▪ However:
▪ they cannot be separated in this manner because they form a minimum-boiling azeotrope
▪ It forms at 80.4C and 1 atm of 31.7 mol% water and 68.3 mol% isopropanol.

▪ A feasible separation method is to distill the mixture in the presence of:
▪ benzene, using a two-operation process.
▪ The first step produces almost pure isopropyl alcohol and a heterogeneous
azeotrope of the three components.
▪ The azeotrope is separated into two phases, with the benzene-rich phase recycled
to the first step and the water-rich phase sent to a second step.
▪ Here, almost pure water is produced by distillation, with the other product recycled
to the first step.

▪ Solution of (e) Separation of penicillin from water in a fermentation broth by
evaporation of the water.
▪ Penicillin has a melting point of 97C:
▪ but decomposes before reaching the normal boiling point.
▪ Thus, it would seem that it could be isolated from water by evaporation of the water.

▪ Solution of (e) Separation of penicillin from water in a fermentation broth by
evaporation of the water.
▪ However:
