Abstract
Design of an ammonia reactor was conceived as part of a series of item designs for an ammonia plant in Cyprus. The Chemical and Mechanical aspects of the design were considered. Optimization of these designs was studied, worked on, & discussed. The safety, environmental and legal regulations of relevant reactor regulations were followed in the design concerned.
Highlights
There was requested the design of an ammonia plant, by which this paper is concerned with the chemical & mechanical engineering design of the ammonia reactor of the plant
In order to explore other design restrictions & to design an optimal reactor, commentary on a range of literature pertaining to the chemical engineering design of an ammonia reactor is needed
The Chemical Engineering Design of an Ammonia Reactor in the paper titled “2500 MTPD OF AMMONIA FROM NAPHTHA” the piece of literature titled “2500 MTPD OF AMMONIA FROM NAPHTHA (Abbas & G, 2015)” will be displayed and reviewed where relevant to the consequent chemical engineering design of an optimized ammonia reactor achieved in this paper
Summary
SECTION 1: CHEMICAL ENGINEERING DESIGN METHODOLOGY OUTLINE A clear approach to the chemical engineering design methodology is to be reviewed to demonstrate the reasoning behind the parameters & aspects of the design this paper produces. The paper “Liquid Ammonium Plant” (Abo Elkheir, et al, 2021) provides the material & mass flow parameters for the reactor design The theory behind these calculations can be found in the Appendices to the Chemical Engineering Design. The Chemical Engineering Design of an Ammonia Reactor in the paper titled “2500 MTPD OF AMMONIA FROM NAPHTHA” the piece of literature titled “2500 MTPD OF AMMONIA FROM NAPHTHA (Abbas & G, 2015)” will be displayed and reviewed where relevant to the consequent chemical engineering design of an optimized ammonia reactor achieved in this paper. The results found in the appendix demonstrate that the volume of the catalyst was found using the flowrates This is faulty as the book, Chemical Reaction Engineering, clearly specifies that the volumes are derived from reaction kinetics pertaining to relevant processes & reactors to the ammonia reactor design (Levenspiel, 1999). & mass balance considerations that overlay & correct the calculations demonstrated for the ammonia plant that this paper is basing the material & mass calculations on (Abo Elkheir, et al, 2021)
