Process-Engineering-Assignments

Assignments given in the capstone project course Process Engineering (CH4250), Spring 2022. These assignments are meant for us to be familiarised with ASPEN.

Assignment-1:

  • Distillation column simulation; all properties specified. Liquid-vapour composition and outlet concentrations are asked.

Assignment-2:

  • Output concentration and Distillation column trays fixed, need to design temperature, pressure, reflux ratios and distillate to feed ratio
  • Design & Vary for radfrac distillation column unit.
  • Tradeoff between the number of trays and reboiler heat duty

Assignment-3:

  • Full Process Simulation
  • Equipment Sizing ASPEN tool

Assignment-4:

  • Captal and operating costs estimation
  • Optimising total cost by dealing with capital vs operating costs tradeoff

Assignment-5:

  • Full process simulation with
    • unit conditions determined by design and vary
    • Waste outlet constraint
  • Sensitivity Analysis
  • Process Flow Diagram (use https://app.diagrams.net/)
