ChemCad Simulation of Divided Wall Column Simulating a Divided Wall Column with various column configurations can be easily achieved when developed within ChemCad. Why would one consider a divided wall column in the first place? Divided wall columns offer savings in capital costs and operating costs but more specifically, energy costs! Traditionally, if you have n … [Read more...]
CHEMCAD Dynamics for Operator Training
CHEMCAD Dynamics is a remarkable tool for operator training. The example shown is a distillation column that looks like a Piping & Instrument Diagram. Each control loop can be modified by changing the proportion, integral and derivative values. The model responds similarly to a plant distillation column. Liquid holdup in the column, heat exchangers and even piping can be … [Read more...]
