    CHE435 - Fall2022 - Assignment Statement - M5

    Uploaded by

    Shady Abdo
    This document outlines a homework assignment to simulate a natural gas processing plant using Aspen HYSYS. The plant involves saturating inlet natural gas with water, separating water in a column, absorbing hydrate compounds into TEG in an absorber column, regenerating the TEG, and purifying the sales gas through heating and component splitting. Students are asked to model the process in HYSYS using provided stream data and specifications. The deadline for submission is November 30th, 2022.

    3 Plagiarism
    Upon suspicion and doubt of the authenticity of the work submitted, the instructor has the right
    to ask the student to verify her/his work. This can be done through, but not limited to, oral
    examination or discussion, or any other action deemed necessary. If the student fails to prove
    the authenticity of the work, then the instructor will apply the academic misconduct rules as
    mentioned in the AUM Student Handbook which may include awarding the work a zero grade.
    You will also be held responsible if someone else copies your work - unless you can
    demonstrate that you have taken reasonable precautions against copying. For a detailed
    description of academic misconduct please refer to the undergraduate AUM Student
    Handbook.

    4 Assignment statement
    Natural gas (Inlet gas stream) is mixed (M-100) with water (water to sat steam) to be
    saturated and excess water is separated (FWKO TK column) as a bottom product (FWKO
    stream). The upper product (Gas to contactor stream) is sent to a TEG contactor (Absorber
    column) where the hydrate formation compounds are absorbed by TEG (TEG feed
    stream). (Dry gas stream) is produced as an overhead product. The bottom product (Rich
    TEG stream) is produced as an overhead product. The bottom product (Rich TEG stream)
    passes through a valve and the outlet (LP TEG stream) is heated in the shell side of a heat
    exchanger (E100 L/R_HEX) by the (Regen bttms) stream. The shell side and the tube side
    outlets are called (Regen Feed stream) and (Lean from L/R stream), respectively. (Regen
    Feed stream) feeds the TEG regenerator (Distillation column) to produce (Sour gas stream)
    as a vapor product and (Regen bttms stream) as a liquid outlet which is used as the inlet
    tube side of the (E100). (Lean from L/R stream) is mixed (M-101) with (Makeup TEG
    stream) and the resulting mixture (TEG to pump stream) is pumped to the tube side of a
    heat exchanger (E-100). The tube side inlet is called (Pump out stream) and the tube’s
    outlet is (TEG to recycle stream) which is recycled as (TEG feed stream) to the TEG
    contactor. (Dry gas stream) enters the shell side of the (E-101) and cooled (Sales gas
    stream). To ensure the (Sales gas stream) meets the desired specifications, a component
    splitter (TEG Remove) is attached to completely remove TEG as an overhead (TEG
    only stream) from the remaining components (Water Dew-point stream). As a final
    purification step, (Water Dew-point stream) is sent to a water dew-point splitter to remove
    condensed water from all the remaining natural gas components. Use Peng-Robinson
    Represent the process flowsheet
    Simulate the process using Aspen HYSYS.
