| Abstract: | A model is proposed for simulation of an industrial Claus unit with a straight-through configuration and two catalytic reactors. Process design evaluation based on deterministic calculations does not take into account the uncertainties associated with the input variables. The probabilistic simulation method was applied in the Claus model to obtain an impression of how some of these inaccuracies influence plant performance. The application was tested experimentally to confirm its validity, then used for control purposes. |
