    This document outlines a student group project to design a process for producing maleic anhydride through the simulation and optimization of a packed bed reactor. The group conducted a literature review, reaction kinetics modeling, heat integration analysis, and mass/energy balancing to simulate the process in DWSIM. Heat integration improved purity from 69.21% to 99.68% showing the success of the project in optimizing the maleic anhydride production process.

    Project Synopsis

    Abstract:

    Maleic anhydride is multifunctional chemical intermediates that find applications in nearly every
    field of industrial chemistry. In this project, first we have done the market analysis of Maleic
    anhydride with its applications. Then after selection of chemical we have done the selection
    process by analyzing feasible process routes to Maleic anhydride production. We also listed out the
    Sources of raw material and product as a literature survey part. In methodology, we have first find
    out the chemical kinetics of the reaction and with the help of POLYMATH software we have
    calculated the respective concentrations of all of the components by varying weight of catalyst
    from 0 to 60,000 kg in a packed bed reactor. From POLYMATH we have also found out the
    maximum concentration at which the selectivity and yield of reaction is the highest. Then, we have
    drawn the block flow diagram and process Flow Diagram using RF-FLOW software.

    Using the data from literature of PFD, we have simulated successfully the simulation in DWSIM.
    We also have done the material and energy balance for the same. The maximum conversion we got
    from the POLYMATH software is used here as the conversion value for the conversion reactor as
    PBR is not provided by the DWSIM. In next step, to improve purity and to maximize heat recovery
    we have done heat Integration by pinch analysis by Temperature Interval Method using MS
    EXCEL. Then, finally we compared the values we got from simulation before heat integration and
    after heat integration. The results that we got from POLYMATH software were also discussed
    briefly. . Purity before Heat Integration was 69.21% and Purity after Heat Integration was found
    out to be 99.68%.
