R. Naren Senior Assistant Professor, Chemical Engineering E-mail: [email protected] School of Chemical and Biotechnology SASTRA Thanjavur 613 401 Tamil Nadu Level: Basic Version: v02 December 2017 This manual uses DWSIM ver 5.1 (Class UI) ii | Page PREFACE The manual “Process Simulation Using DWSIM” presents a set of eleven basic exercises using a free and open source chemical process simulator “DWSIM” and can be utilized to establish process simulation laboratory as part of undergraduate chemical engineering degree or in allied degree curriculum. Simulation covers topics across the broad spectrum of chemical engineering courses covering mixing, reaction, phase equilibrium, heat and mass transfer operations. The problem statements are rightly placed at the beginner’s level with each exercise complete in terms of sufficient instructions that enable the learner to perform the exercise with ease on their own. Supplementary self-learning exercises are also provided for simulation experiments to further aid a curious learner. This manual is the second version brought out by the SASTRA FOSSEE Centre, a partner with FOSSEE, IIT-B. At this juncture, I thank Prof Kannan M. Moudgalya, Professor, IIT-B for initiating me into FOSSEE tools and helping to establish the FOSSEE at SASTRA. I also owe my sincere thanks to my earlier students G. Jayaram and A. S. Ragul, who interned at FOSSEE and developed the version 1 of this manual. I believe the manual is helpful and can meet its intended objective. Care is taken to ensure the manual is free from factual and typological errors. However, I request the users to debug the exercises given in the manual and if you find any errors or discrepancy in using the manual, you can feel free to bring to my notice. Thanks Naren iii | Page iv | Page PROCESS SIMULATION USING DWSIM: A FREE AND OPEN SOURCE CHEMICAL PROCESS SIMULATOR PREAMBLE DWSIM is an open-source CAPE-OPEN compliant chemical process simulator. It features a Graphical User Interface (GUI), advanced thermodynamics calculations, reactions support and petroleum characterization / hypothetical component generation tools. DWSIM can simulate steady-state, vapor–liquid, vapor–liquid-liquid, solid–liquid and aqueous electrolyte equilibrium processes and has built-in thermodynamic models and unit operations (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DWSIM ).

    MARKO LEINO PROCESS SIMULATION UNIT OPERATION MODELS – REVIEW OF OPEN AND HSC CHEMISTRY I/O INTERFACES Master of Science Thesis Examiner: Professor Hannu Jaakkola Examiner and topic approved by the Faculty Council of the Faculty of Business and Built Environment on 6 April 2016 i ABSTRACT MARKO LEINO: Process Simulation Unit Operation Models – Review of Open and HSC Chemistry I/O Interfaces Tampere University of Technology Master of Science Thesis, 76 pages, 29 Appendix pages April 2016 Master’s Degree Programme in Information Technology Major: Software Engineering Examiner: Professor Hannu Jaakkola Keywords: CAPE-OPEN, HSC Chemistry Sim, unit operation, process simulation Chemical process modelling and simulation can be used as a design tool in the development of chemical plants, and is utilized as a means to evaluate different design options. The CAPE- OPEN interface standards were developed to allow the deployment and utilization of process modelling components in any compliant process modelling environment. This thesis examines the possibilities provided by the CAPE-OPEN interfaces and the .NET framework to develop compliant, cross-platform process modelling components, particularly unit operations. From the software engineering point of view, a unit operation is a represen- tation of physical equipment, and contains the mathematical model of its functionality. The study indicates that the differences between the CAPE-OPEN standards and Outotec HSC Chemistry Sim are negligible at the conceptual level. On the other hand, at the implementa- tion level, the differences are quite considerable. Regardless of the simulation application be- ing used, the modelling of unit operations requires interdisciplinary skills, and creating tools and methods to ease the development of such models is well justified.

NATURAL GAS PROCESSING – DESIGNING AND SIMULATION SARTHAK VAIDYA Datta Meghe College of Engineering, University of Mumbai, Airoli, Mumbai, India ABSTRACT Natural Gas is an important, non-renewable gas which is obtained along with crude oil extraction. Raw Natural gas contains a high amount of impurities and acidic gases. It is extremely important to remove these gases for efficient combustion of products. Natural gas processing is the term used for the separation of Natural gas stream into commercially viable products such as LNG, LPG, and NAPTHA. This paper emphasizes on design and simulation of the processing of natural gas to yield maximum productivity of LNG and LPG. It also focuses on reducing acid gas content from the "Raw natural gas" stream. Simulation is performed by using DWSIM software. Effect on LPG production by varying the operating parameters such as Reflux Ratio, operating pressure, and Number of trays is also studied. Around 96% of LNG and 95% of LPG were produced when the process flowsheet was simulated. Also, the developed process is found to be energy efficient as only two fractionating towers are required to obtain the optimum production yield. KEYWORDS: Simulation, Natural Gas Processing, Process Design, LPG, LNG, & DWSIM Original Article Received: Sep 19, 2020; Accepted: Oct 09, 2020; Published: Oct 23, 2020; Paper Id.: IJCPTDEC20201 INTRODUCTION Natural gas, sometimes also called as fossil gas, is naturally occurring gas inside Earth's crust. It is a non-renewable source of energy containing low molecular weight hydrocarbons.

Pustek E&T Technical Note Sheet 2 / 16 1. PENDAHULUAN Gas alam merupakan salah satu komoditas terbesar untuk suplai energi dunia. Dalam alur suplai gas alam, berbagai fasilitas diperlukan baik pengolahan maupun transportasi untuk dapat digunakan oleh konsumen. Penggunaan gas alam secara umum yaitu untuk dijadikan sebagai bahan bakar maupun bahan baku pada fasilitas plant petrokimia. Rasio massa dan volume yang sangat rendah membuat suplai gas alam ke konsumen perlu dilakukan dengan berbagai cara, baik suplai gas langsung melalui pipeline atau suplai dengan transportasi dimana gas perlu pre-treatment untuk menghasilkan gas alam terkompresi (CNG) atau gas alam tercairkan (LNG). Kebutuhan akan gas alam yang meningkat baik di industri maupun rumah tangga mendorong berbagai aktivitas pembangunan fasilitas metering gas dan pipeline. Di tahap awal pembangunan pipeline, analisis aliran gas perlu dilakukan untuk memastikan gas terdistribusi dengan laju alir volume dan tekanan sesuai dengan persyaratan dari konsumen. Selain itu, velocity aliran gas juga perlu dipastikan agar tidak melebihi batas maksimum sizing pipa pipeline. Analisis aliran gas dapat dilakukan dengan simulasi proses menggunakan software DWSIM.
