Recommended Design

Design analysis included:

• number of trays

• tray diameter

• pipe diameter for each stream

• pump selection (if necessary)

McCabe-Thiele Diagram

Fortran program “Distil.exe” was used to generate data that was plotted in Excel to give McCabe-Thiele Diagram. Diagram shows equilibrium line, operating line, feed line, separation line, and the stepped off stages.

Sieve Tray Efficiency

Sieve trays were chosen because they are cheaper, more efficient, and have a larger operating range than other types of tray designs

Fg = Ut g

Optimum Reflux Ratio

The optimum reflux ratio was determined by calculating the annual operating costs for columns with varying reflux ratios. A plot of annual cost vs. reflux ratio was made; the optimum value is the one that corresponds to the minimum point on the curve.

Minimizing Annual CostThree options each were given for heating the reboiler and cooling the condenser.

Heating: steam at 20 psig ($1/1000lb)

steam at 100 psig ($3/1000lb)

electrical heating ($0.12/kWh)

Cooling: cooling water ($0.50/1000gal)

domestic water ($1.80/1000gal)

refrigerant ($5/ton-day)

Minimizing Annual Cost

Total annual costs (based on 7200 hr/yr) were calculated for each of the options. The lowest priced option for each was selected.

• heating: steam at 20 psig

• cooling: CWS

Conclusions

The column designed contains 81 trays, with a diameter of 23.7 ft and 12 inch spacing between the trays. It will require an initial start-up cost of $3.01 million, and a present worth of $17.14 million over a projected 11 year operational life.
