Abstract

Now-a-days, Because of cost and time consuming in the design of plants chemical engineer used simulators to simulate design and operation of chemical equipment and plant, which spares a great deal of time and cash.Today, there are many number of the simulators are refreshed and utilized in the simulation of chemical equipment and plant such as ChemCad, ProII, UniSim……..etc. Among of these simulators, Aspen Hysys is the most utilized programming in all ventures because of aiding in two noteworthy fields (design & operation). Simulation of ammonia synthesis process is done on Aspen Hysys V8.8 with steady state mode making some assumptions and using hypothetical reactors ammonia. By fluctuating the distinctive parameters in this simulation environment, the impact of these parameters in the generation rate of the procedure are watched.

Highlights

  • Ammonia is a compound of nitrogen and hydrogen with the recipe NH3

  • Though our task was to represent production of ammonia in aspen HYSYS software v 8.8, making a few suppositions and utilizing theoretical reactors ammonia production simulation have been performed with the steady state behavior of the process

  • The equipments used from aspen Hysys in the simulation of ammonia plant design are shown in Table (1)

Summary

Introduction

Ammonia is a compound of nitrogen and hydrogen with the recipe NH3. It is a drab gas with a trademark sharp smell. Ammonia is used in the Production of nitrogen fertilizers as the primary element. Haber-Bosch process [4] is the main industrial method for ammonia production which created in 1905 by Fritz Haber and developed for industry in 1910 by Carl Bosch. Production of hydrogen is from natural gas and production of nitrogen is from atmospheric air. Though our task was to represent production of ammonia in aspen HYSYS software v 8.8, making a few suppositions and utilizing theoretical reactors ammonia production simulation have been performed with the steady state behavior of the process
