Using Aspen HYSYS V10, this study looks into how to validate and improve the AT-660 distillation column at PT Chemical Happy, a plant that makes formic acid. Distillation is a crucial process in chemical engineering for separating liquid mixtures based on vapor pressures and boiling points. The primary challenge in formic acid production is the separation of azeotropic mixtures, particularly formic acid and water, from methanol and methyl formate. We utilize various packing materials, like pall rings, to enhance the efficiency of the distillation columns. The research involved simulating the plant process and comparing the results with actual plant data. The study found that the simulation results were consistent with the real-world data, validating the software's accuracy. The findings suggest that adjusting operational parameters can significantly improve the efficiency and purity of formic acid production. This research provides practical solutions for optimizing distillation processes and demonstrates the effectiveness of simulation software in industrial applications.
Dengan menggunakan Aspen HYSYS V10, penelitian ini mencari cara untuk memvalidasi dan meningkatkan kolom distilasi AT-660 di PT Chemical Happy, sebuah pabrik yang memproduksi asam format. Distilasi adalah proses penting dalam teknik kimia untuk memisahkan campuran cairan berdasarkan tekanan uap dan titik didih. Tantangan utama dalam produksi asam format adalah pemisahan campuran azeotropik, khususnya asam format dan air, dari metanol dan metil format. Kami menggunakan berbagai bahan pengemas, seperti cincin pall, untuk meningkatkan efisiensi kolom distilasi. Penelitian ini melibatkan simulasi proses pabrik dan membandingkan hasilnya dengan data pabrik yang sebenarnya. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa hasil simulasi konsisten dengan data dunia nyata, memvalidasi keakuratan perangkat lunak. Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa penyesuaian parameter operasional dapat secara signifikan meningkatkan efisiensi dan kemurnian produksi asam format. Penelitian ini memberikan solusi praktis untuk mengoptimalkan proses distilasi dan menunjukkan keefektifan perangkat lunak simulasi dalam aplikasi industri.
