Fixed process, flow chart

Figure14.1 Simplified flow chart for the new zeolite recirculating fixed bed process without solvent. Effluent 0.035 tonne per tonne of acetoanisoie.

In the previous workshop you should have built the system shown in Figure W4.1. Check that you still have the Wilson property package specified. The only components required are water and methanol. The inlet temperature should be 30°C, and the heater outlet should be fixed at 70°C. Initially, we wish to analyse a process without dead time so, you will need to delete the PFR that you added in the previous workshop. Retain the strip charts that you set up previously. If they have been deleted, rebuild them to contain the following variables feed temperature, tank outlet temperature, steam heat flow, and feed molar flow. Select suitable ranges for each variable.
