This paper proposes a novel extractive dividing wall distillation column, which has been designed using constrained stochastic multiobjective optimization technique. The approach is based on the use of genetic algorithms to determine design that minimizes energy consumption and total annualized cost. Several case studies are used show feasibility performing separations in columns. simulation results effect main variables complex process.
Bioethanol is among the most promising of biofuels because it has an energy content similar to gasoline while generating lower pollutant emissions than gasoline. But, in order be used as automotive fuel mixed with gasoline, ethanol must have less 0.5 wt % water. To achieve required purity, light fact that ethanol–water mixture forms azeotrope, unconventional separation techniques such extractive distillation or azeotropic are necessary. However, purification using conventional followed by...
This work introduces a multiobjective optimization approach to integrate the design and control of multicomponent distillation sequences. The evaluation properties systems were evaluated through calculation condition number total annual cost each design, respectively. Three systems, including direct sequence, indirect dividing wall column along with three mixtures representative ease separation index (ESI) values different feed compositions, studied. In addition, in posterior stage process,...
Currently furfural production has been the subject of increased interest because it is a biobased chemical able to compete with fossil-based chemicals. Furfural characterized by flammability, explosion, and toxicity properties. Improper handling process design can lead catastrophic accidents. Hence most importance use inherent safety concepts during stage. This work first present several new downstream separation processes for purification, which are designed using an optimization approach...
