CAPE-OPEN at IVC-SEP Martin P. Breil Co-LaN Annual General Meeting Selwyn College, Cambridge3-4 April 2008
Mærsk Olie og Gas AS IVC-SEP Welltec
Overview • IVC-SEP ThermoSystem • A short update on the ThermoSystem • CO2 absorber • General theory • CAPE-OPEN way • Results
Models involved • ThermoSystem contains • CPA, • PC-SAFT, • SRK and PR • CPA and PC-SAFT are associating models (H-bonds)
Model parameters • SRK and PR are 3-parameter modelsa0 energy b co-volumec1 correlation (T-dependence on a0) • Based on the critical properties (Tc,Pc,w)
Model parameters • CPA is a 5-parameter modela0 energy b co-volumec1 correlation (T-dependence on a0)e asc energyb asc volume factor CPA reduces to SRK when no asc. G.M. Kontogeorgis, M.L.

Runs in … • Aspen 2-phase flashacetic acid 0.40water 0.40benzene 0.20 at T = 130 C and P = 3.5 bar
Runs in… • COCO
Runs in… • PRO/II
Conclusions on ThermoSystem • Finally compliant with PRO/II (8.0.3). • Only contains a PT flash algorithm. • Comments to PRO/II • It is not possible to produce phase envelopes of CO-packages (but the built-in ones)

CO2 absorber • Contribute to the development of efficient CO2 capture for coal-fired power plants • 1/3 of man-made CO2 from generation of electricity • Denmark mainly coal • Keep electricity infrastructure
Technology Absorption of CO2 from coal fired power plants with aqueous solutions of alkanolamines Chemical reactions Clean Flue Gas CO2 + 2 R2NH <=> R2NH2+ + R2NCOO– Flue gas CO2 Alkanolamine Simplified flow-sheet for CO2 Capture using Alkanolamines By courtesy of Jostein Gabrielsen
Absorber Clean flue gas Height = 4.36 m Diameter = 15 cm Amine lean dll Flue gasw. CO2 Amine rich
Boundary value problem • Example • Numerical solutionby collocation(Shampine et al.) Available on the web: Shampine, Muir, and Xu A user-friendly FORTRAN BVP solver
Results • Implementation in Aspen • COCO
Temperature profile in tower AMP Full – vapour Dash - liquid
Conclusion on Unit Operations • Once the legacy code is provided, it is straightforward to produce a CO-version • Unfortunately, the engineers at the power plants do not use CO-compliant PMEs.(They build on in-house simulators)
