Cyclic distillation is a proven process intensification method for enhanced separation of various mixtures. It uses an alternative operating mode based on separate phase movement which leads to important practical advantages (vs conventional mode) such as increased column throughput, lower equipment cost (using much less trays at the same reflux ratio) and reduced energy requirements by 20–35% (smaller reflux ratio at the same number of stages), and better separation performance (up to three times). However, if the impurities to be separated are in very low amounts in the feed then distillation is not favorable from an energy use viewpoint. This article is the first to report the practical performance of a continuous process for ethanol purification by air stripping using a cyclic mode of operation, a novel process that avoids the costs of distillation. The purification of ethanol food grade (96.4 vol%) from volatile impurities (0.5 vol%) such as esters, aldehydes, and alcohols, is carried out in a hydro-selective column with five stages. The lightweight impurities are removed from a stream that is the head fraction of a distillation column. This is usually a waste stream amounting to 3–6% of the plant production rate. By concentrating the stream with impurities, more ethanol is produced such that the losses are reduced to only 1–1.5% of the plant capacity. Based on the experimental results presented in this work, a process consisting of two air stripping columns using cyclic operation is proposed for industrial implementation. 相似文献

Distillation remains a key technology for separating liquid mixtures. Its versatility comes with the disadvantage of high energy consumption. We previously used empirical arguments to introduce dynamic process intensification (DPI) as a strategy for improving the energy efficiency of binary distillation. In this article, we focus on ternary distillation; we begin by providing a rigorous basis for DPI, then formulate the problem of identifying the operating states for DPI as a nonlinear optimization problem. Via an extensive case study considering a hydrocarbon mixture, we demonstrate that reboiler energy use can be reduced by more than 2.3% relative to an equivalent column operating at steady state. We prove that this result is due to the fact that DPI aims to satisfy product flow and quality constraints on average in time, affording broader opportunities for optimizing column economics than steady-state operation, where constraints are met strictly at all times. 相似文献

Process intensification focuses largely on process and equipment design. Much less emphasis has been placed on operational changes to achieve cost savings and increased efficiency. This article introduces the concept of dynamic intensification, defined as changes to the dynamics, operating strategy and/or control of a process that lead to a substantially more efficient processing path. This idea is illustrated in the context of binary distillation. Output multiplicity properties are exploited to establish a new periodic operating mode based on switching between two auxiliary products, which, on a time-average basis, is more energy efficient than steady-state operation. An extensive case study is presented concerning the distillation of a propanol–acetic acid mixture, confirming the theoretical developments. In contrast to previous research (e.g., on cyclic distillation), the present concept has significant advantages as it relies on existing hardware and exploiting system nonlinearity, rather than using specialized equipment operated in a discontinuous fashion. © 2018 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 65: 1162–1172, 2019 相似文献

The most effective separation possible in distillation columns takes place in the hydrodynamic regime where there is perfect displacement of the liquid and vapor streams. This can be achieved in distillation equipment with separate phase movement (SPM). Such an innovative route for process intensification in distillation is called cyclic distillation. The required process conditions are the lack of liquid outflow from the tray during vapor admission and the lack of liquid mixing in adjacent trays upon outflow of liquid. Remarkably, the throughput of such a column that operates in a controlled cycle mode is two or more times higher than the throughput reachable with conventional operation, at equivalent separation performance.In this study, a theoretical stage model with perfect displacement is proposed and the theory of the process working lines is developed. An adequate mass transfer model is also described along with the mode of calculation of tray columns operating in the cyclic operation mode. Sensitivity analysis was used to determine the effect of the key model parameters. The theoretical developments were implemented at industrial scale and subsequent testing showed an increase in the separation efficiency of 2-3 times as compared to the standard process. 相似文献

Cyclic distillation is an emerging process intensification technology, which can improve separation efficiency compared to conventional distillation. As most current models only account for the mass transfer, there is a lack of a stage model for cyclic distillation processes, which includes considerations of both mass and energy transfer. Such a model is presented in this article, and using this model, selected case studies, describing binary and multiple component systems with both ideal and nonideal liquid phases, are investigated. The presented stage model allows for the modeling of both mass and energy transfer for a cyclic distillation process and allows for multiple feed locations, as well as side draws. With the energy balances included, the dynamic vapor flow rate can be described. This was shown to have a significant effect on the separation, especially for cases where the change in the vapor flow over the column height was high. 相似文献

Finding good process schemes is a difficult task due to its search among multiple alternatives. In literature, several methods are successfully implemented as computer tools, but their use is limited to their developers. There are several useful rules of thumb and heuristics providing useful guidelines, but sometimes these are contradictory. Some authors tried to rank the various alternatives, defining heuristic equations to provide a quantitative parameter to choose among possible solutions. In this paper, mathematical model of distillation columns is simplified, assuming infinite number of stages. The resulting proposed equation has a great similarity to one of the previous heuristic ones. A simple equation not relying on heuristics and easy to use in calculation is provided to evaluate the distillation sequence energy efficiency (DSE) for each alternative. This allows to quantify the advantages derived from process intensification for a given feed composition. The proposed equation is dimensionless, as the Carnot efficiency is used instead of the temperature difference between distillate and bottoms. On the other hand, intermediate results provide also useful information. For instance, the Carnot efficiency of each column indicates when a heat pump or enhanced distillation would be useful. The recovery efficiency for each particular compound allows an easy comparison between alternatives, considering variations on the feed composition. The new equation is verified comparing its results with cases already solved in literature using different methods. The results show that all the methods in literature are able to provide the best sequence, except the heuristics-based ones that are not providing an overall sequence evaluation. The novelty of the proposed DSE method resides in its ease of application, compared to nowadays available methods, and requires only the feed composition and products boiling points. 相似文献

The synthesis and design of reactive distillation columns separating reacting mixtures with the most unfavorable relative volatilities (i.e., the reactants are the heaviest and lightest components with the products being the intermediate ones) are described. The unfavorable thermodynamics poses great difficulties in combining the reaction operation and the separation operation involved and limits severely the potential of reactive distillation columns in the reduction of capital investment (CI) and operating cost. To remove the limitation, we propose two strategies for facilitating the synthesis and design of this kind of reactive distillation columns in this article. One is to arrange prudentially the reactive section so as to strengthen internal energy integration between the reaction operation and the separation operation involved; that is, while the reactive section should be placed at the bottom of the reactive distillation columns separating exothermic reactions, it should be at the top of the reactive distillation columns separating endothermic reactions. The other is to introduce an external recycle flow between the two ends of the reactive distillation columns to reinforce internal mass integration and internal energy integration between the reaction operation and the separation operation involved; that is, whereas the external recycle flow should be directed from the top to bottom of the reactive distillation columns separating exothermic reactions, it should be from the bottom to top of the reactive distillation columns separating endothermic reactions. Separation of four hypothetical ideal (i.e., two quaternary and two ternary systems, respectively) and two real nonideal (i.e., two quaternary systems) reacting mixtures is chosen to evaluate the proposed strategies. The results show that they can considerably lower energy requirement besides a further reduction in CI. © 2012 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 59: 2015–2032, 2013 相似文献

A fundamental principle is developed for process intensification through internal mass and energy integration in reactive distillation columns and three systematic procedures are devised for process synthesis and design. For reactive distillation columns involving reactions with highly thermal effect, process intensification can be achieved with an exclusive consideration of internal energy integration between the reaction operation and separation operation involved. However, in the case of a highly endothermic reaction with an extremely low reaction rate and/or small chemical equilibrium constant, internal mass integration has also to be considered between the reactive section and stripping section. For reactive distillation columns involving reactions with negligibly or no thermal effect, process intensification can be performed with an exclusive consideration of internal mass integration. For reactive distillation columns involving reactions with moderately thermal effect, process intensification must be conducted with a careful trade-off between internal mass and energy integration. Five hypothetical and two real reactive distillation systems are employed to evaluate the principle and procedures proposed. It is demonstrated that intensifying internal mass and energy integration is really effective for process intensification. Not only can the thermodynamic efficiency be improved substantially, but also the capital investment can be further reduced. 相似文献

In the production and separation process of petroleum, medicine, chemical industry and other industries, it is often accompanied by the production of azeotropic or similar boiling point mixtures. Its high-efficiency and energy-saving separation is a prerequisite for industrial clean production and sustainable development. Special distillation as an effective separation method attracts substantial attention from researchers. However, special distillation is a process with high-energy consumption. Therefore, the development of intensification technology for special distillation with low costs and reliable performance is of great significance for the economy and energy sustainable development. According to the heat and mass transfer laws of special distillation, this work introduces the research advances of thermally coupled distillation, dividing wall column, side-stream distillation, organic Rankine cycle, heat pump and different pressure thermally coupled technologies in energy saving special distillation process from the intensification principles and retrofitting technologies. In addition, this work outlines the challenge and opportunity of intensification technology to provide references of the theoretical research and application to special distillation. 相似文献

针对直接接触式膜蒸馏(direct contact membrane distillation,DCMD)过程存在的膜通量小及膜污染问题,设计了一种新型结构的膜蒸馏组件。以蔗糖溶液为处理液,考察了膜组件装填密度Φ、膜曝气量q、蔗糖浓度c与温度T0对DCMD过程的影响。结果表明:随着Φ、q的增加,DCMD过程的膜通量先增大,后逐渐降低,Φ、q均存在最优值;随着c的增加,膜通量逐渐降低;随着T0的增加,膜通量增大;对c为30%(mass)的蔗糖溶液进行DCMD法处理330 min时,膜曝气可使DCMD的初始膜通量Jinitial提升24.7%、膜通量衰减率ΔJ降低55.0%,维持高膜通量的连续运行时间t0延长4倍。主要原因是膜曝气强化了DCMD过程的传热传质,进而强化过程的分离性能;有效控制了DCMD过程的浓差极化,进而延缓过程的膜污染进程。研究结果有利于推进DCMD的工程化应用。 相似文献

Process intensification (PI) of distillation using a microchannel distillation (MCD) device successfully reduced the height of a theoretical plate (HETP) in separating propane and propylene to 1.2 cm, representing 10 theoretical stages. Mass transfer is enhanced using thin wicking structures that are 0.17 mm thick in counterflow with vapor. Liquid is segregated in the wicks by applying a siphon relative to the vapor phase, which also enables the device to operate horizontally. A scalable device containing 11 wicks was operated cryogenically in total reflux. The HETP varied between 1.2 and 4.5 cm, representing a dramatic reduction over commercial structured packings and comparable to other PI approaches. Significant improvements are expected with further development. Potential application for intensified distillation processes include distributed manufacturing and difficult separations involving close boiling compounds and meeting high purity specifications. The ultimate application is isotopic enrichment, where the number of stages required is typically multiple thousands. © 2018 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 64: 3690–3699, 2018 相似文献

The separation of benzene and trace thiophene by extractive distillation was intensified in two aspects, that is, selection of a suitable entrainer and improvement of the process. The mixture of dimethylformamide (DMF) and an ionic liquid (IL) was chosen as the entrainer. Vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) experiments using pure DMF and a mixed entrainer were conducted, and UNIFAC model for ILs was extended to the benzene‐thiophene‐DMF‐IL system. The results demonstrated that volatilization loss of DMF in the vapor phase was significantly reduced by adding IL. Moreover, an improved process with only four columns using a mixed entrainer was proposed. The results indicated that the improved process is more promising for decreasing energy consumption and equipment investment compared with the conventional six‐column process. The total heat duties of reboilers and condensers was decreased by 6.47% and 6.41%, respectively. The process intensification strategy may be directly extended to separate trace components of other systems. © 2015 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 61: 4470–4480, 2015 相似文献

Internally heat-integrated distillation column (HIDiC) is the most radical approach of a heat pump design, making efficient use of internal heat-integration: the rectifying section of a distillation column operating at a higher pressure becomes the heat source, while the stripping part of the column acts as a heat sink. Remarkably, a HIDIC can bring up to 70% energy savings compared to conventional distillation columns. This is highly appealing regarding the fact that distillation is one of the most energy intensive operations in the chemical process industry accounting for over 40% of the energy usage. This review paper describes the latest developments concerning this promising but difficult to implement process intensification technology, covering all the major aspects related to the working principle, thermodynamic analysis, potential energy savings, various design configurations and construction options (ranging from inter-coupled or concentric columns, shell and tube and plate–fin heat exchanger columns to SuperHIDiC), design optimization, process control and operation issues, as well as pilot-scale and potential industrial applications. Further advancement, i.e., development of HIDiC technology for multi-component mixture separations is an extremely challenging research topic, especially when HIDiC becomes associated with other technologies such as dividing-wall column (DWC) or reactive distillation (RD). 相似文献
