The default configuration is for hexane (C6) and heptane (C7). Any feed tray can be selected. The default is tray 5. The distillation column (C-301) feed is pumped (P-101/2) through a preheater (E- 101) where its temperature is raised to the optimum temperature of the feed tray. The distillation column (C-301) is heated with a thermosyphon type reboiler (E-401). The bottoms product is pumped (P-501/2) out of the distillation column (C-301) to a product storage facility. The distillation column (C-301) vapors are condensed in an overhead condenser (E- 601) and enter a reflux drum (D-701) where the liquid is accumulated. The uncondensed vapors can be vented through a vent line. Reflux pumps (P-801/2) draw liquid from the bottom of the reflux drum (D-701) and pump part of the liquid back (reflux) to the distillation column (C-301). The balance of the liquid is sent to a product storage facility. Product Approximately 235 GPM of 50 WT % hexane and 50 WT % heptane are separated in Specifications the distillation column (C-301). The feed is supplied to the preheater (E-101) at 68 Deg F where its temperature is raised to 175.9 Deg F (the temperature of feed tray 5). 48 GPM of 500 Deg F ThermOil is required to accomplish this task. 240 GPM of 500 Deg F ThermOil heats the bottom of the distillation column (C-301) to 204.6 Deg F in a reboiler (E-401). Approximately 113.4 GPM of bottoms product at 7.3 WT % Lights (Hexane) is produced. Approximately 322 GPM of overhead vapor is condensed in the overhead condenser (E-601). Since all of the overhead vapor is condensed no venting is required. 350 GPM of 68.0 Deg F cooling water is required for this task. Approximately 200 GPM of the condensed vapor is pumped (P-801/2) back to the distillation column (C-301) as reflux. The balance of 121.7 GPM is drawn off as overhead product at 91.1 Wt % Lights (Hexane) and 156.6 Deg F. The distillation column (C-301) is operated at approximately 0 PSIG (atmospheric pressure) and the total column pressure drop is 0.973 PSI.

Continued on next page Doc Revision 10 DSS-100 Version 6.3 Page 10 SPM-700 Manual Operator Instrumentation, continued Advanced Distillation column control can be very simple or very complex, depending upon your Controls particular process and plant. The flexibility and realism of the Simtronics SPM-700 Distillation Simulation allows you to configure the column to more closely resemble your system. The following are a few examples of various ways to control the distillation column. The preheated feed temperature may be controlled by placing temperature controller TIC-102 in automatic and entering the desired setpoint. Since it is optimum for the feed to enter the distillation column (C-301) at the same temperature as the feed tray, the feed tray temperature (TI-305) can be cascaded to the preheated feed temperature (TIC-102) in a master-slave type arrangement. In this manner the feed would always enter the column at the optimum feed tray temperature, and no further adjustments would be required by the operator. Reflux rate (FIC-801) may be controlled simply by putting reflux flow rate controller (FIC-801) in automatic with the desired setpoint. More sophisticated methods of controlling the distillation column (C-301) are possible. By design tray 8 temperature (TIC-308) is cascaded to the reflux rate in a master-slave arrangement. In this manner overhead temperature may be specified with no further adjustments required by the operator. Operating in this manner affects the column bottoms temperature control. An increase in reflux rate (FIC-801) will cool the column bottoms temperature, as will, a decrease in reflux will heat the column bottoms. The temperature change in column bottoms will increase or decrease the ThermOil rate (TIC-501). The column (C-301) pressure differential (PDI-301) is a key indicator in identifying reflux rate (FIC-801) and ThermOil rate (TIC-501) discrepancies. PDI-301 indicates the load on the column. Condenser cooling water flow rate (FIC-601) is specified locally by placing the flow controller in automatic with the appropriate setpoint. FIC-601 flow rate affects the the reflux drum (D-701) outlet temperature (TI-801)..Increasing or decreasing the reflux drum (D-701) temperature will also affect the overhead temperature (TIC- 308) via the reflux flow (FIC-301). Column pressure (PIC-701) is typically controlled by allowing the pressure to float with overhead accumulator (D-701) temperature (TI-801) and composition (AI-801). One alternative is to control column pressure (PIC-701) by varying cooling water flow rate (FIC-601). This is done by cascading the overhead pressure controller (PIC-701) to the cooling water flow rate controller (FIC-601) in a master-slave type arrangement. Another alternative is to adjust condenser cooling water flow rate (FIC-601) such that not all of the overhead vapor is condensed (partial condenser). In this manor column pressure (PIC-701) may be controlled by venting the column. This is accomplished by placing the column pressure controller (PIC-701) in automatic and entering the correct setpoint.

To smoothly change product compositions, the column bottoms temperature controller (TIC-501), column pressure controller (PIC-701), condenser cooling water flow rate controller (FIC-601), and reflux rate flow controller (FIC-801) setpoints should be modulated. Responding to An instrument in alarm indicates that there is an upset condition in the process. A Alarms swift response to an alarm can prevent a dangerous condition from occurring. Responding directly to a key process variable that is in alarm may not always be the best corrective action. Understanding and observing the relationships of all process variables can help you troubleshoot the problem and take proper corrective action to return the process to design conditions. For example, in the distillation column, overhead and bottoms composition alarms might be caused by changes in column feed temperature and composition. Reboiler fouling might be the cause of column temperature, pressure, composition, product flow rate, and level alarms. Condenser cooling water fluctuations could cause column temperature, pressure, composition, flow rate, and level alarms.
