Design and Control of Acrylic Acid Production Process
Abstract: This paper presents the design and control of acrylic acid production process using Aspen Plus and Aspen Dynamics. Propylene reacts with oxygen and produces acrylic acid and water. Plant-wide operability and control of the entire acrylic acid production plant with controllers is explained. The results indicate that the proposed process gives good dynamic performance (a settling time of less than 3 h).

Design and Control of Acrolein Production Process
Abstract: In this study, the design and control of acrolein production plant has been investigated. The proposed design consists of a reactor and two distillation columns. Propylene reacts with oxygen and produces acrolein, acrylic acid, carbon dioxide and water. Plant wide operability and control of the entire acrolein production plant with decentralized controllers are explained. Tray temperature control loop and composition control loop are designed to infer final product purity. From …

Design and Control of Ethyl Acetate Production Process
Abstract: In this study, the design and control of ethyl acetate production plant has been investigated. The proposed design consists of a continuous-stirred tank reactor and two distillation columns. Ethanol reacts with acetic acid and gives ethyl acetate and water. Plant-wide operability and control of the entire process plant with decentralized controllers is explained by doing both steady state and dynamic simulations. Tray temperature control loop performance is tested for the …
