Introduction
In Unit 250 of the Nouri Petrochemical Company, the feed of Tower T-2501 comes from Drum 2502, which contains gaseous condensates. This stream includes both light and heavy hydrocarbons. The objective of Tower T-2501 is to separate the light components (C-1 to C-6). After separating the light components in the first tower, the bottom products are sent to Unit 300 (reforming) for cracking.
In this project, to separate C6 hydrocarbons, a new secondary tower has been designed. Before entering the reforming unit, cyclohexane, normal hexane, and benzene are separated in this new tower. The figure below shows the PFD of Tower 2501 in BORZOUYEH Pet. Co. Company. The bottom outlet of the tower is added to the newly designed secondary tower.
This project is simulated with Aspen Plus software and has an educational video. To Purchase the project or get more information about it, proceed through the link below.
