Modelling and Simulation of Fermentation Product Purification for Local Vinegar using Batch Distillation

Tools for Teaching Batch Distillation Inductively using Process Simulation

One approach to active learning involves taking students through a guided exploration process; one which ensures students will observe phenomena and then be asked questions intended to draw conclusions regarding the observations. In recent years, this has been called inductive teaching, but more recently the expression “inquiry-based instruction” or related terms have become more common. Concur...

a study on thermodynamic models for simulation of 1,3 butadiene purification columns

attempts have been made to study the thermodynamic behavior of 1,3 butadiene purification columns with the aim of retrofitting those columns to more energy efficient separation schemes. 1,3 butadiene is purified in two columns in series through being separated from methyl acetylene and 1,2 butadiene in the first and second column respectively. comparisons have been made among different therm...

Batch Distillation: Simulation and Experimental Validation

Batch industries, specially the fine chemical industry, need rapid and robust mathematical models that can easily predict the degree of separation of mixtures like volatile organic compounds. Otherwise, in the study of on line production scheduling and planning of fine chemical plants, there is a lack of quick but reliable and more accurate than black box models in batch distillation. In this w...

Modelling of a Fed-Batch Fermentation Process

This report describes the building of a simulator for prediction of the dissolved oxygen concentration, the oxygen transfer rate and the concentration of carbon dioxide in a fermentation process. The steady state models were made using the linguistic equations method. The dynamic models were made using Simulink ® toolbox in the Matlab ® . At the beginning, some basics about fermentation and mic...
