  • Process Intensification in the Synthesis of Organic Esters : Kinetics
    PROCESS INTENSIFICATION IN THE SYNTHESIS OF ORGANIC ESTERS: KINETICS, SIMULATIONS AND PILOT PLANT EXPERIMENTS By Venkata Krishna Sai Pappu A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chemical Engineering 2012 ABSTRACT PROCESS INTENSIFICATION IN THE SYNTHESIS OF ORGANIC ESTERS: KINETICS, SIMULATIONS AND PILOT PLANT EXPERIMENTS By Venkata Krishna Sai Pappu Organic esters are commercially important bulk chemicals used in a gamut of industrial applications. Traditional routes for the synthesis of esters are energy intensive, involving repeated steps of reaction typically followed by distillation, signifying the need for process intensification (PI). This study focuses on the evaluation of PI concepts such as reactive distillation (RD) and distillation with external side reactors in the production of organic acid ester via esterification or transesterification reactions catalyzed by solid acid catalysts. Integration of reaction and separation in one column using RD is a classic example of PI in chemical process development. Indirect hydration of cyclohexene to produce cyclohexanol via esterification with acetic acid was chosen to demonstrate the benefits of applying PI principles in RD. In this work, chemical equilibrium and reaction kinetics were measured using batch reactors for Amberlyst 70 catalyzed esterification of acetic acid with cyclohexene to give cyclohexyl acetate. A kinetic model that can be used in modeling reactive distillation processes was developed. The kinetic equations are written in terms of activities, with activity coefficients calculated using the NRTL model. Heat of reaction obtained from experiments is compared to predicted heat which is calculated using standard thermodynamic data. The effect of cyclohexene dimerization and initial water concentration on the activity of heterogeneous catalyst is also discussed.

The process is also known as catalytic distillation when a solid catalyst is used. RD technology has many key advantages such as reduced capital investment and significant energy savings, as it can surpass equilibrium limitations, simplify complex processes, increase product selectivity and improve the separation efficiency. But RD is also constrained by thermodynamic requirements (related to volatility differences and heat of reaction), overlapping of the reaction and distillation operating conditions, and the availability of catalysts that are active, selective and with sufficient longevity. This paper is the first to provide insights into novel reactive distillation technologies that combine RD principles with other intensified distillation technologies – e.g. dividing-wall columns, cyclic distillation, HiGee distillation, and heat integrated distillation column – potentially leading to new processes and applications. 1. Introduction Reactive distillation (RD) is one of the best success stories of process intensification technology – developed since the early 1920s – that made a strong positive impact in the chemical process industry (CPI).

Explain qualitatively and quantitatively how unfavorable reactions may occur at the expense of a favorable reaction. 4. Apply the concept of coupled reactions and the thermodynamic additivity of free energy changes to calculate overall free energy changes and shifts in the concentrations of reactants and products. 5. Construct balanced reduction–oxidation reactions, using half-reactions, and calculate the resulting changes in free energy and emf. 6. Explain differences between the standard-state convention used by chemists and that used by biochemists, and give reasons for the differences. 7. Recognize and apply correctly common biochemical conventions in writing biochemical reactions. Basic Quantities and Concepts Thermodynamics is a system of thinking about interconnections of heat, work, and matter in natural processes like heating and cooling materials, mixing and separation of materials, and— of particular interest here—chemical reactions. Thermodynamic concepts are freely used throughout biochemistry to explain or rationalize chains of chemical transformations, as well as their connections to physical and biological processes such as locomotion or reproduction, the generation of fever, the effects of starvation or malnutrition, and more.

  • Process Descriptions: an Introductory Library Research Assignment on Chemical Processes for First Year Students
    Session 1313 Process Descriptions: An Introductory Library Research Assignment on Chemical Processes for First Year Students S. Scott Moor Lafayette College Abstract In our first year “Introduction to Engineering” class, each student passes through a three-week block on chemical engineering. In such a short period of time, it is always a challenge to give students a clear idea of the nature and diversity of chemical engineering. I have particularly wanted them to understand the process focus of chemical engineering and the wide range of products made with chemical processes. One tool I have used over the past two years is a assignment requiring students to research how some product is made, writing up a brief (two- page plus figures) summary of their research. Groups of three students work on a topic together and are given approximately one week to complete their research. They are required to look into the basic process for making their assigned product, the safety and environmental issues for that process, the uses of the product and some background on the economics of the product. In this paper, I present the details of the set-up of this assignment so it can be easily reproduced. Included are the over 50 topics currently used and references that cover these topics. I also present an assessment of our experience. Students seem to find this assignment interesting and enjoyable. The resulting summaries are generally well done. This assignment has the added benefit of getting the engineering students into the library early in their engineering studies. Introduction In our first year ”Introduction to Engineering” class, I wanted students to gain insight into the nature of chemical engineering and the issues which chemical engineers face.

DOE-HDBK-1100-2004 FOREWORD The Office of Health (EH-5) under the Assistant Secretary for the Environment, Safety and Health of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has published two handbooks for use by DOE contractors managing facilities and processes covered by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Rule for Process Safety Management of Highly Hazardous Chemicals (29 CFR 1910.119), herein referred to as the PSM Rule. The PSM Rule contains an integrated set of chemical process safety management elements designed to prevent chemical releases that can lead to catastrophic fires, explosions, or toxic exposures. The purpose of the two handbooks, "Process Safety Management for Highly Hazardous Chemicals" and "Chemical Process Hazards Analysis," is to facilitate implementation of the provisions of the PSM Rule within the DOE. The purpose of this handbook is to facilitate, within the DOE, the performance of chemical process hazards analyses (PrHAs) as required under the PSM Rule. It provides basic information for the performance of PrHAs, and should not be considered a complete resource on PrHA methods.
