Waste Minimization in Cumene Production Process
Abstract: This study deals with waste minimization in cumene production process using WAR (Waste Reduction Algorithm). Initially cumene production process is designed using ASPEN PLUS V8.8 chemical process simulator. Using WAR algorithm PEI’s (Potential Environmental Impacts) are calculated. Based on the PEI values process modifications are suggested to minimize the PEI’s. The modified process is eco-friendly by reducing the waste by 29.9%.

Sustainable Production of Drying Oil using ASPEN PLUS
Abstract: This original research work discusses the sustainable design of drying oil production process using ASPEN PLUS V8.8. Waste reduction analysis studies using WAR (Waste Reduction algorithm) at the early design stage is performed to minimize the waste or pollution by taking better design decisions in the process. Energy analysis is carried out for the entire process and it is observed that 48.92% of energy can be saved for the base …
