Abstract:
Nowadays, and globally our people severe from environmental pollution, and care about energy supply stability. As we all know that petroleum base fuels have harmful nonfriend emissions like Nox, and Sox so we look after and think about clean and efficient another alternative fuel from other base than crude oil.
DME, is one of the alternatives found which the world think about seriously. In this thesis we will show how to produce DME via dehydration of methanol and a simple simulation of that process trying to be applicable in Sudan.
The process is simulated using ASPEN plus simulation environment version 8.8 with data taken from scientific paper talks about design and simulation of DME production unit with hypothesized feed quantityto study the criteria of the process and how it will be like. Many production scenarios are tested and studied to reach the optimum operating conditions with responding to the produced quantities of DME.
