Modeling and simulation for production optimization of olefins in AMIR-KABIR PETROCHEMICAL

The Ethylene production process is one of the most important aspects of a petrochemical plant. The bulk of the worldwide annual commercial production of Ethylene is based on thermal cracking of petroleum hydrocarbons with steam. This process is commonly called pyrolysis or Steam Cracking process. In this investigation, the effect of COT on the reactor yield is studied. A simulator is developed by the use of a mathematical model, which describes the static operation of a naphtha thermal cracking furnace. The model is used to predict the steady state profile of Ethylene and Propylene products yield. To study even more, the thermal cracking is simulated with LINDE software. The results of mathematical model and simulation have been compared with laboratory results of olefin unit of AMIR KABIR PETROCHEMICAL and they follow the same trend
