Maggiori informazioni sul libro
This text provides a comprehensive review of the theory and practice behind simulating and optimizing petroleum refining processes. It covers the quantitative modeling of key refinery reactions and fractionation processes, introducing essential concepts in thermodynamics and physical property predictions for hydrocarbon components. The authors, experts in the field, detail procedures and essential data needed for constructing reaction and fractionation models using commercial software. They emphasize filtering extensive refinery data and utilizing plant data to calibrate models, extending them to incorporate crucial fractionation sub-models. This foundation enables a better understanding of plant phenomena, ultimately enhancing yield, consistency, and performance. Additionally, the authors discuss applying models within the broader context of refinery planning through linear programming. Key topics include thermodynamics, physical property predictions, and the development of detailed models and workflows for atmospheric and vacuum distillation units, as well as modeling for FCC, catalytic reforming, and hydroprocessing units. Aimed at chemical and process engineers, this resource explores advanced simulation tools and techniques to support both experienced professionals and newcomers in the field.
