Product Description
In my book, Refinery Process Modeling, I present generalized techniques that may be used to model any petroleum refinery. This publication presents the development of simulation models for a typical oil refinery based on these techniques. The six major refining processes in a typical oil refinery are used to develop simulation flowsheet models. Operating data corresponding to unit test runs are presented for each process and a stepwise approach to development of the simulation models is given. The six processes for which models are developed are: 1) Crude, Vacuum, and Crude Preheat Train. 2) FCC Unit and Gas Plant. 3) Naphtha Desulfurizer/Reforming Unit. 4) Delayed Coking Unit. 5) Distillate Hydrotreating Unit. 6) HF Alkylation Unit. Appropriate drawings and diagrams are used to describe the development of the simulation flowsheet models. The models are not simulator specific and may be developed with any commercial simulator capable of modeling petroleum processes.
About the Author
Gerald L. Kaes worked for many years as a consultant providing computer simulation services to engineering contractors and operating companies. He has extensive experience using simulation models for design, analysis, trouble-shooting, and bottleneck removal for petroleum processes. Prior to consulting, Mr. Kaes spent fourteen years with SimSci, a major vendor of engineering software where he served as the chief technical consultant for petroleum processes. Before this, he worked for a major engineering firm where he wrote a simulation program for oil and gas processes and gave technical support to users of the program. His career began with CONOCO, Inc. where he was involved with simulation and optimization of oil refineries. Mr. Kaes holds Bachelor and Master of Science degrees from the University of Nebraska. He is a registered professional engineer and a member of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers
