Control Properties Analysis of Alternate Schemes to Thermally Coupled Distillation Schemes
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recently, on the assumption that the presence of the recycle stream in thermally coupled distillation schemes (TCDS) might origin a difficult operation, some alternate arrangements that might provide better operational properties have been proposed. In this work, on the framework of singular value analysis, control properties of two alternate schemes were assessed and compared with their corresponding TCDS. The results show that the alternate schemes, in which the recycle streams are removed, do not necessarily provide an improvement on the control properties. Copyright © 2007 IFAC

Controllability analysis of alternate schemes to complex column arrangements with thermal coupling for the separation of ternary mixtures
Thermally coupleddistillation systems (TCDS) havebeenproposed toperformdistillation separation tasks with the incentive of achieving lower energy consumption levels with respect to conventional distillation sequences. In particular, the presence of recycle streams for TCDS schemes has influenced the notion that control problemsmight be expected during the operation of those systemswith respect ...
متن کاملControlPropertiesandThermodynamicAnalysisofTwoAlternatives toThermallyCoupledDistillationSystemswithSideColumns
The thermally coupled distillation configurations have received considerable attention because of their efficiency to reduce the energy required for the separation of ternary mixtures. The structure of the complex systems offers some control challenges arising from the transfer of vapor (or liquid) streams between the columns. Recently, some alternate schemes to thermally coupled distillation a...
