Abstract:
This project present anew methodology to design the distillation column based on
simulation of the unit using ASPEN HYSYS, the methodology consider that the
Nile blend is a complex mixture so it take every two products and from the
simulation results determent the light and heavy key between the two product to
calculate the minimum number of try and the minimum reflux to determine the
actual number of try and the dimensions of the column in general , the results of
the design is 52 trays and diameter of 2.191 m and 26.6m high . Also the project
concerned on control of the unit using different type of controller. using the
simulation model to control the production of the products and try to increasing
the productivity of naphtha from 7.75% to 11.62% ,and increasing the kerosene
from 3.87% to 5.8% .experiment of gas chromatography is been done in CPL to
use it in validation of model.
