2 Distillation Recycle Loops

3 Closing Recycle Loops Matrix Mathematics Without Recycle Loop [P] x = y Straight forward martix multiplication gives y recycle With Recycle Loop [P] x + r [P] y = (1-r) y x Unit Op y x Unit Op Non-linear model Non-linear matrix manipulation y [P] (x+ry)

4 Tear Streams in Aspen Hidden Tear Stream is added to Recycle Loop Tear = β*recycle By Component Tear i = β*recycle i β is increased from δ to 1 Issues how fast do you step β? Convergence Tear Unit Op (is mass & energy & P in balance at mixing point ) x Recycle y

5 Aspen Help Diagnosing Tear Stream Convergence Most of the time the problem is the inside loop U1 U2

6 What is an Azeotrope?

7 Introduction Separation sequences are complicated by the presence of azeotropes, often involving mixtures of oxygenated organic compounds: Alcohols Ketones Ethers Acids Water In these cases, distillation boundaries limit the product compositions of a column to lie within a bounded region Prevents the removal of certain species in high concentrations

8 Binary x Distillation IPA-IPE IPA/IPE x Mininum-boiling Azeotropes x

9 Binary Distillation IPA/IPE Acetone/Chloroform Maximum-boiling Azeotropes x

10 Can multi-component Distillations have Azeotropes? Yes! Possibly Multiple!

11 Raoult s Law γ L i P = i x i P sat

12 Azeotrope Conditions Conditions on the Activity Coefficient P γ T L j 1 L 1 s 1 = x γ P L + ( 1 x1 ) γ 2 P2 s > 1, j = 1,2... C, Positive Deviations from Raoult's Law γ L j < 1, j = 1,2... C, Negative Deviations from Raoult's Law Minimum Boiling, γ jl > 1 Maximum Boiling, γ jl < 1 Giving Rise to x j =y j, j=,1,2, C

13 Homogeneous Azeotropes (Cont d) For non-ideal mixtures, the activity coefficients are different from unity: If γ > 1 i yp = xγ P yp = xγ P = γ + ( ) γ s s P x P 1 x P the mixture has a minimum-boiling azeotrope S S Example Phase diagrams for Isopropyl ether-isopropyl alcohol

14 Homogeneous Azeotropes (Cont d) For non-ideal mixtures, the activity coefficients are different from unity: If γ < 1 i yp = xγ P yp = xγ P = γ + ( ) γ s s P x P 1 x P the mixture has a maximum-boiling azeotrope S S Example Phase diagrams for Acetone-Chloroform

15 Importance of Physical Property In all cases Data Set Need sophisticated liquid phase model to accurately predict the activity coefficient for the liquid. For High Pressure (> 10 bar) Cases Only Also need sophisticated (non-ideal) gas phase fugacity model

16 Two Types of Min. Boiling Azeotropes Homogeneous Azeotrope Heterogeneous Azeotrope A B A B Overlay with Liquid/Liquid Separation which is sometimes best separation method (costs much less)

17 Instructional Objectives When you have finished studying this unit, you should: Be able to sketch the residue curves on a tertiary phase diagram Be able to define the range of possible product compositions using distillation, given the feed composition and the tertiary phase diagram Be able to define the PFD for a heterogeneous azeotropic distillation system Be able to define the PFD for a pressure swing distillation system

18 Concepts Needed Phase Diagram for 3 phases Lever Rule on Phase Diagram Residue Curves

19 Basics: 3-Phase Diagrams 0.2 TBA 0.65 DTBP 0.2 DTBP 0.15 H 2 O TBA = Tertiary-butyl alcohol, TBHP =Tertiary-butyl hydroperoxide DTBP = Di-tertiary-butyl peroxide

20 Basics: 3-Phase Diagrams (Cont d) 0.2 TBA 0.2 DTBP TBA = Tertiary-butyl alcohol DTBP = Di-tertiary-butyl peroxide 0.6 H 2 O

21 Basics: The Lever Rule

22 Residue Curves Distillation still Mass balance on species j: Lx = ( L) y + ( L L)( x + x ), j = 1,, C 1 j j j j As L 0: Lx = y dl + Lx + Ldx x dl dldx, j = 1,, C 1 j j j j j j Rearranging: dl dx j / L = x y = x1 ( K{ TPxy,,, }) dx j j j j j = x j dt y j

23 Multi-component Azeotropes Residue Curve Map dx j /dť = dx j /d ln(l) = x j y j Integrate from various starting points Arrows from low to High Temp Path of the residue composition

24 dx Sketching Residue Curves (Exercise) x j = j dt y j

25 Distillation X B, X F and Y D form a line for a Distillation Column Line can not cross Feasible Region line For Partial Condenser For Total Condenser

26 Distillation Boundaries Equilibrium Trays in Total Reflux dx dh n+ 1 x n V L n n 1 y n + L D n 1 y D x n y n, for D = 0, L = n-1 V n Distillation Lines x = y, for all n = n n +1 0,1,... x n and y n lie on equilibrium tie lines Tangent to Residue Curve

27

28 AspenPlus To Create Residue Maps After putting in the components and selecting the physical property method Choose In Properties Choose Residue Curves In Simulation Choose Distillation Search

29 Residue Curves Liquid Compositions at Total Reflux Species balance on top n-1 trays: L x + Dx = Vy n 1 n 1 D n n Approximation for liquid phase: dxn x x n n 1 dh Substituting: dx V D n + dh L L n x y x n n D n 1 n 1 Stripping section of distillation column At total reflux, D = 0 and V n = L n-1 dx n dh x n y n

30 Nodes

31 dx x j = j dt Residue Curves (Cont d) y j Residue curves for zeotropic system Residue curves for Azeotropic system

32 Defining Conditions for Multicomponent Azeotrope t goes from 0 to 1, ideal to non-ideal to find Azeotrope

33 Product Composition Regions for Zeotropic Systems

34 Product Composition Regions for Azeotropic Systems

35 Heterogeneous Azeotropic Distillation Example: Dehydration of Ethanol Try toluene as an entrainer What are the zones of exclusion?

36 Ethanol/Water Distillation with Toluene to Break Azeotrope S2 M2 D1 S1 M1 Distillation Line Tie Line

37 Ethanol/Water Distillation with Benzene To Break Azeotrope

38 How To Break Azeotropes with Entrainer Separation Train Synthesis Identify Azeotropes Some distillations are not Azeotropic and can be accomplished relatively easily Identify alternative separators Select Mass Separating Agent or Entrainer Identify feasible distillate and bottoms product compositions Residue Curve Analysis

39 Pressure Swing to Break Azeotrope Temp. of Azeotrope vs. Pressure Mole Fraction of Azeotrope

40 Pressure-swing Distillation (Cont d) Example: Dehydration of Tetrahydrofuran (THF) T-x-y diagrams for THF and water

41 Other Multi-component Distillation Problems Multiple Steady States Run same distillation column with same set points but different computational starting point Get Two or More Different Results Top or bottom compositions This is real in that the column will have two different operating conditions! Happens most often with multi component distillation

Azeotropic distillation Example 1

Azeotropic distillation Example 1 Azeotropic distillation Example 1 Separate water from iso-butanol. The phase behavior for this mixture is interesting. There is a minimum boiling azeotrope formed as well as a liquid-liquid phase separation
