methyl tertiary butyl ether (mtbe) is known as a promising substitute for tetra ethyl lead (tel) in order to increase the octane number of gasoline. mtbe process, as many other processes, has two distinguished section, namely reaction section and separation section. in this paper we focus only on synthesis and optimization of separation section of this process. in order to achieve this objectiv...

alkaline hydrolysis of ethyl acetate is essentially an irreversible and second order reaction. industrial importance of the reaction product, sodium acetate, necessitate for process improvement in terms of maximum conversion and economical usage of raw materials. statistical design of experiments was utilized to enhance conversion in both batch and plug flow reactors.a full two level factorial ...

this paper describes the application of process integration principles to the design of oil refineries hydrogen network. in this regard, a design hierarchy as well as heuristics and required guidelines are proposed. the recommended rules compensate lack of procedure to the design and make the design process easier. the guiding principles of the design are based upon pinch technology and extendi...

creation of urban identity is the important subject in architecture and urban design. so, this article foci’s on the creation of identity in urban context with participation approach in architecture and urban design. corporate architecture is an architectonic discipline which focuses on designing and constructing buildings, spaces or environments with the aim of meeting the needs of a business ...

a procedure is presented that synthesizes fractional crystallization separation processes to obtain pure solids from multi-component solutions. the method includes a procedure to generate a network flow model to identify alternative process designs for fractional crystallization. the main advantage of this systematic procedure with respect to other reported procedures is using non-equilibrium s...
