Introduction
Acrylonitrile is a chemical compound with the formula C3H3N. This colourless liquid often appears yellow
due to impurities. It is an important monomer for the manufacture of useful plastics such
as polyacrylonitrile. In terms of its molecular structure, it consists of a vinyl group linked to a nitrile.
Acrylonitrile (AN) is commercially produced by a reaction of propylene and ammonia in the presence
of a catalyst. Having both olefinic (C=C) and nitrile (C-N) groups permits a large variety of reactions
and makes ANa versatile chemical intermediate. The nitrile group can undergo hydrolysis,
hydrogenation, esterification and reduction. Reactions of the carbon double bond include
polymerization, copolymerization, cyanoethylation, cyclization and halogenation. One of the
reasons for the versatility of acrylonitrile is that it can form copolymers with other unsaturated
compounds, such as styrene and butadiene, for example a raw material for acrylic acid, acrylic
esters, acrylic amide in the synthesis of compounds used for the production of adhesives, antioxidants, binders and emulsifiers. In its liquid state, acrylonitrile has a tendency to polymerize, which
is prevented by the addition of phenolic or amine-based stabilizers and small quantities of water.
Most industrial acrylonitrile is produced by catalytic ammoxidation of propene:
2CH3-CH=CH2 + 2NH3 + 3O2 CH =CH-CN + 6H2O

Acrylonitrile (AN), also known as vinyl cyanide (CH2=CH-CN), is a high volume commodity chemical
with worldwide production of more than 10 billion pounds per year. It contributes billions annually to
the U.S. economy. Acrylonitrile is used as a monomer in the production of acrylic and modacrylic fibers,
which accounts for approximately 50% of its global use.
Acrylic fiber is used for clothing, carpeting and other fabrics and in the production of rugged plastics for
automotive components, computers, and appliances. Acrylic fiber is also used in the manufacture of
polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-base carbon fibers; which are increasingly important materials for lightweight,
high-strength applications in aeronautics, automotive, engineering, etc. Acrylonitrile is used as a comonomer the production of acrylonitrile, butadiene, styrene (ABS) and styrene acrylonitrile (SAN)
polymers, which accounts for an additional 31% of use. These polymers are used in a wide range of oiland chemical-resistant nitrile rubber for industrial hoses, gaskets and seals. Acrylonitrile is also used as
an intermediate in the production of other industrial chemicals, such as adiponitrile and acrylamide.
In the first half of the last fortnight, selling offers for ACN went up at slow and steady pace. In the early
first half of the last fortnight, ACN prices firm up in Asian market due to rise in feedstock rates, which
supported the price rise. Prices were stable in European market due to poor energy market. In the early
second half of the last fortnight, ACN prices surged in Asian market due to increase in feedstock value
coupled with improved demand from the downstream market. It is produced in very large amounts (2.5
billion pounds in 1993) by five companies in the United States. U.S. demand is likely to increase 2 to 3
percent per year for the next several years. The largest users of acrylonitrile are companies that make
acrylic and modacrylic fibers. Companies also use AN to make: high impact acrylonitrile-butadienestyrene (ABS) plastics used in business machines, luggage, and
construction material; styreneacrylonitrile (SAN) plastics used in automotives and household goods and in packaging material;
adiponitrile, a chemical used to make nylon; and dyes, drugs, and pesticides.
3 Health Effects
Chemicals can be released to the environment as a result of their manufacture, processing, and use. EPA
has developed information summaries on selected chemicals to describe how you might be exposed to
these chemicals, how exposure to them might affect you and the environment, what happens to them in
the environment, who regulates them, and whom to contact for additional information. EPA is committed
to reducing environmental releases of chemicals through source reduction and other practices that
reduce creation of pollutants.
Acrylonitrile is highly flammable & toxic. It undergoes explosive polymerization. The burning material
releases fumes of hydrogen cyanide and oxides of nitrogen. It is classified as a Class 2B
carcinogen (possibly carcinogenic) by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), and
workers exposed to high levels of airborne acrylonitrile are diagnosed more frequently with lung cancer
than the rest of the population. Exposure to acrylonitrile can occur in the workplace or in the
environment following releases to air, water, land, or groundwater. Exposure can also occur when people
smoke cigarettes or breathe automobile exhaust. Acrylonitrile enters the body when people breathe air
or consume water or food contaminated with AN. It can also be absorbed through skin contact. It does
not remain in the body due to its breakdown and removal.
There are two main excretion processes of acrylonitrile. The primary method is excretion in urine when
acrylonitrile is metabolized by being directly conjugated to glutathione. The other method is when
acrylonitrile is metabolized with 2-cyanoethylene oxide to produce cyanide end products that ultimately
forms thiocyanate, which is excreted via urine, or carbon dioxide and eliminated through the lungs.
Acrylonitrile evaporates when exposed to air. It dissolves when mixed with water. Most releases of
acrylonitrile to the environment are to underground sites or to air. Acrylonitrile evaporates from water
and soil exposed to air. Once in air, AN breaks down to other chemicals. Microorganisms living in water
and in soil can also break down AN. Because it is a liquid that does not bind well to soil, acrylonitrile that
makes its way into the ground can move through the ground and enter groundwater. Plants and animals
are not likely to store acrylonitrile.
Exposure to acrylonitrile is primarily occupational. It is used in the manufacture of acrylic acid and
modacrylic fibers. Acute (short-term) exposure of workers to acrylonitrile has been observed to cause
mucous membrane irritation, headaches, dizziness, and nausea. No information is available on the
reproductive or developmental effects of acrylonitrile in humans. Based on limited evidence in humans
and evidence in rats, EPA has classified acrylonitrile as a probable human carcinogen (Group B1).
[The main sources of information for this fact sheet are EPA's Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS),
which contains information on inhalation chronic toxicity of acrylonitrile and the RfC and the
carcinogenic effects of acrylonitrile including the unit cancer risk for inhalation exposure, EPA's Health
Effects Assessment for Acrylonitrile, and the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry's
(ATSDR's) Toxicological Profile for Acrylonitrile.]
3.1.1
3.1.2
Acrylonitrile can be detected in the blood to determine whether or not exposure has occurred.
Metabolites may be detected in the urine, but some breakdown products are not specific to
acrylonitrile.
Acute Effects
Workers exposed via inhalation to high levels of acrylonitrile for less than an hour experienced
mucous membrane irritation, headaches, nausea, feelings of apprehension and nervous
irritability; low grade anaemia, leukocytosis, kidney irritation, and mild jaundice were also
observed in the workers, with these effects subsiding with the ending of exposure. Symptoms
associated with acrylonitrile poisoning include limb weakness, laboured and irregular
breathing, dizziness and impaired judgment, cyanosis, nausea, collapse, and convulsions.
A child died after being exposed to acrylonitrile by inhalation, suffering from respiratory
malfunction, lip cyanosis, and tachycardia before death. Several adults exposed to the same
concentration of acrylonitrile exhibited eye irritation, but no toxic effects.
Acute dermal exposure may cause severe burns to the skin in humans.
Acute animal tests in rats, mice, rabbits, and guinea pigs have demonstrated acrylonitrile to
have high acute toxicity from inhalation and high to extreme acute toxicity from oral or dermal
exposure.
A statistically significant increase in the incidence of lung cancer has been reported in several
studies of chronically exposed workers. However, some of these studies contain deficiencies
such as lack of exposure information, short follow up, and confounding factors.
In several studies, an increased incidence of tumors has been observed in rats exposed by
inhalation, drinking water, and gavage. Astrocytomas in the brain and spinal cord and tumors of
the Zymbal gland (in the ear canal) have been most frequently reported, as well as tumors of the
stomach, tongue, small intestine in males and females, and mammary gland in females.
EPA has classified acrylonitrile as a Group B1, probable human carcinogen (cancer-causing
agent).
EPA uses mathematical models, based on human and animal studies, to estimate the probability
of a person developing cancer from breathing air containing a specified concentration of a
chemical. EPA calculated an inhalation unit risk estimate of 6.8 10-5 (g/m3)-1. EPA
estimates that, if an individual were to continuously breathe air containing acrylonitrile at an
average of 0.01 g/m3 (1 x 10-5 mg/m3), over his or her entire lifetime, that person would
theoretically have no more than a one-in-a-million increased chance of developing cancer as a
direct result of breathing air containing this chemical. Similarly, EPA estimates that breathing
air containing 0.1 g/m3 (1 x 10-4mg/m3) would result in not greater than a one-in-a-hundred
thousand increased chance of developing cancer, and air containing 1.0 g/m3 (1 x 103 mg/m3) would result in not greater than a one-in-ten thousand increased chance of
developing cancer. For a detailed discussion of confidence in the potency estimates, please see
IRIS.
EPA has calculated an oral cancer slope factor of 0.54 (mg/kg/d)-1.
Hence, In conclusion the effects of acrylonitrile on human health and the environment depend on how
much acrylonitrile is present and the length and frequency of exposure. Effects also depend on the health
of a person or the condition of the environment when exposure occurs. Breathing acrylonitrile for short
periods of time adversely affects the nervous system, the blood, the kidneys, and the liver. These effects
subside when exposure stops. Nervous system effects of AN range from headaches and dizziness to
irritability, rapid heartbeat, and death. Symptoms of acrylonitrile poisoning may occur quickly after
exposure or after levels of breakdown products like cyanide build up in the body. Direct contact with
acrylonitrile liquid severely damages the skin. Acrylonitrile liquid or vapor irritates the eyes, the nose,
and the throat. These effects are not likely to occur at levels of acrylonitrile that are normally found in the
environment.
There are several health effects case studies of acrylonitrile workers. The methods used in these studies
limit conclusions that can be made from the results. These studies show that workers repeatedly
breathing small amounts of acrylonitrile over long periods of time may develop cancer. Cancer occurs
primarily in the respiratory tract. Laboratory studies show that repeated exposure to acrylonitrile in air
or in drinking water over a lifetime also causes cancer in animals. Studies also show that repeated
exposure to acrylonitrile adversely affects the respiratory and central nervous systems and causes
developmental toxicity in laboratory animals.
Acrylonitrile has moderate toxicity to aquatic life. By itself it is not likely to cause environmental harm at
levels normally found in the environment. Acrylonitrile can contribute to the formation of photochemical
smog when it reacts with other volatile substances in air.

4 Sohio Process
It is the most famous method used by industries in order to produce Acrylonitrile by Propylene.
Propylene and ammonia are reacted in the presence of air at almost stoichiometric quantities at 30 psia
and a temperature of 662F - 1112F. The catalysts used in the process are mostly based on mixed metal
oxides such as bismuth-molybdenum oxide, iron-antimony oxide, uranium-antimony oxide, tellurium molybdenum oxide etc. The reactor product is cooled by quenching with water and is neutralized using
sulphuric acid to remove unconverted ammonia. Acrylonitrile is removed by extractive distillation, while
crude acetonitrile and hydrogen cyanide are separated from the bottom products. Hydrogen cyanide is
then removed by distillation.
Some of the wastes that are generated from the process are processed as follows:
Ammonium sulphate that is produced as the bottoms product from the neutralizer can be used as
a fertilizer.
Unconverted ammonia is vented to the atmosphere. Aqueous wastes containing cyanides,
sulphates etc., are disposed of either incinerated, deep well injection or by biological treatment.
Reactor
The reactor is a large-diameter cylindrical vessel provided with a gas -distribution grid for supporting the
fluid bed, as well as with injection devices for feeding the gaseous reactants. The optimal catalyst particles
size is in the range 40 to 100 m, in which the presence of a certain amount of fines is necessary for
ensuring homogeneous fluidization. The gas velocity is slightly above the minimum, in general between
0.4 to 0.5 m/s. Trays or screens, usually between 5 and 15, can be placed transversally in order to reduce
the negative effect of back mixing. This modification gives much better performance in term of
acrylonitrile yield. Because of the highly exothermal reaction cooling coils are immersed in the fluid bed.
Since the temperature of reaction is around 420 450 C high pressure steam of 30 to 40 bar can be
raised.
The feeding strategy of reactants should take into account the reaction mechanism. Usually, the oxygen
(air) is introduced below the bottom grid, with the mixed propylene and ammonia through spiders
positioned above the grid. The catalyst plays an important role in preserving the safety as scavenger for
oxygen radicals. No explosion was ever encountered over decades of operation.

(-r3)=1.99 * exp(-7000/RT)
(-r4)=780.07 * exp(-7000/RT)
(-r5)=8.357 * exp(-7000/RT)
Where
is the residence time.
V is the volume of reactor
Q is the flow rate of feed
Therefore, varying the reactor volume effectively varied the residence time.
The conversion of the key inlet component in the PFR and the CSTR schemes increases as the
temperature increases. The conversion increases from 11 % to 63% for CSTR for a temperature range of
700F to 1000F. The conversion increases from 12% to 71 % when the reactor used is a PFR for the
same temperature range.
Effect of Catalyst
The catalysts used in the process are mostly based on mixed metal oxides such as bismuth-molybdenum
oxide, iron-antimony oxide, uranium-antimony oxide, tellurium - molybdenum oxide etc. Conversion of
Propylene various with different composition of metals in catalyst.

Liquid/Vapor Molefrac ACRYL-01
From the binary distillation curve of AN and HCN, it is evident that both streams can be obtained as pure
species. However, since the composition of stream is far from equimolar, therefore in a single column
with reasonable number of trays and condenser duty, large amount of AN also goes into the top stream.
Therefore, a second column at lower pressure is used to recover AN from the top stream. Net AN
Recovery is close to 99.9%, however, some of HCN is lost due to reaction with Acrolein. This reaction is
important for removal of Acrolein in the form of heavies.

After removing HCN, AN and ACN are valuable components that can be recovered from bottom streams.
However, the binary distillation curve for AN-ACN mixture suggests that separation by ordinary
distillation is extremely difficult. In such a scenario, changing column pressure may be considered. It is
observed that changing the pressure does not have a great effect on relative volatilities. Therefore this
option is ruled out. Addition of another component to change the relative volatilities is considered next.
An ideal extracting fluid must:
Sufficiently change relative volatility
Be easily separated from two components
Water is used as an extracting fluid because it is readily available and non-toxic. Residue curve of waterAN-ACN system shows that a large amount of water is required to ensure efficient separation. Water to
feed ratio for extractive distillation is 10:1. AN is obtained as a top product whereas ACN is obtained as a
side stream. The bottom product consists of heavies (such as cyano-acrolein and is sent to wastewater
treatment section).

Acylonitrile may be obtained as a pure component if AN conc. in the input stream is high. This can
be achieved if less water is entrained in the top stream of extractive distillation. This achieved by
using a decantor for phase separation.
Side stream contains large amount of water, whereas the amount of valuable ACN is very small.
From the binary distillation curve it is evident that at best the azeotropic point can be reached.
However, this should be good enough a concentration because amount of ACN is anyway small (5
moles for 100 moles of raw-AN). Therefore a small amount of water can be separated by
advanced drying techniques.

Liquid/Vapor Molefrac ACRYL-01
Extractive distillation is defined as distillation in the presence of a miscible, high boiling, relatively nonvolatile component, the solvent, that forms no azeotrope with the other components in the mixture. The
method is used for mixtures having a low value of relative volatility, nearing unity. Such mixtures cannot
be separated by simple distillation, because the volatility of the two components in the mixture is nearly
the same, causing them to evaporate at nearly the same temperature at a similar rate, making normal
distillation impractical. The solvent interacts differently with the components of the mixture thereby
causing their relative volatilities to change. This enables the new three-part mixture to be separated by
normal distillation.

Simplifying Assumptions
Gases present in raw acrylonitrile are neglected and therefore not accounted for in simulation
steps. In practice, they are vented out in phase separators.
In case of distillation columns, equilibrium separations are assumed for the base case design.

It can be seen that the process gives reasonable recoveries for all the products. The main product of this
process, acrylonitrile is recovered up to 98.43%. However, the purity of product streams is not very high.
Most of them contain entrained water and therefore additional separation steps may be required to
remove water depending on the application.
Water Recovery
For extractive distillation, large amount of water is required. Therefore the process results in large
amount of wastewater. This mostly consists of heavies and small amount AN and ACN that could not be
recovered. It is therefore desirable to separate pure water from this stream, so that it can be recycled for
extractive distillation. Also, the remaining effluent can be further treated to recover remaining valuable
products depending on product and operating costs. Pure water is recovered from wastewater in WT1.
The process leads to recovery of 98.73% recovery of water used for extractive distillation and can be
recycled to reduce the overall water requirement for the process.
Solid/Liquid Waste
Wastes include salts of hydrogen cyanide, metal cyanide complexes, and organic cyanides (cyanohydrins)
as solutions or solids. The wastewater from the wastewater column contains ammonium sulphate and
heavy hydrocarbons, while the wastewater from the acetonitrile column mainly contains heavy bottoms.
The wastewater from both these columns is typically dis-charged to a deep well pond. Other methods of
waste treatment include alkaline chlorination in a recycle lagoon system, and incineration.
9 Modifications to Design
Quench Column (Acidic)
Quench column is used to cool the reactor outlet to 30oC, as well as remove ammonia as sulphate. The
feed gas is quenched with 30-40% sulphuric acid. Recycled water is added to compensate for
vaporization losses.
Equipment:
The quenching is carried out in a packed column in order to increase the heat transfer area as well as area
for dissolution of ammonia. Since sulphuric acid is highly corrosive, ceramic packing in the form Raschig
rings are used. Random packing is used due to high flow rates. (Similar packing is used in manufacture of
sulphuric acid, in SO3 absorption to form oleum.) In order to prevent corrosion of column walls, it is lined
with glass. The ring diameter in packing is large (1in) in order to prevent clogging due to tiny catalyst
particles.
Associated Problem:
Modelling a quench column is particularly difficult because of 5 main processes that take place in a single
transfer unit:
Transfer of NH3 into the liquid phase
Reaction b/w NH3 and H2SO4 in the bulk liquid phase
Vaporization of water from liquid phase
Heat transfer
Clogging of catalyst particles into packing
To simplify the problem, clogging can be ignored. However, on simulation in aspen, the model failed to
give a satisfactory result.
Use of CFD
In order to obtain a better insight into the problem, CFD simulations are carried out using COMSOL
Multiphysics. The motivation is to model a smallest repeated transfer unit of the column for all the above
factors. The following assumptions are made for developing a basic model:
1. Radial variations in the column are neglected unless there is a different stream. That is, both
liquid and gas streams are radially uniform and vary only along the length of the column.
2. The channelled flow through the packing can be assumed to be a flow through a cylinder of
radius same as the Raschig ring.
3. The gas is assumed to bubble through the liquid inside the flow domain. Further, concentration of
NH3 inside a single bubble is uniform.
4. The dissolution of NH3 follows first order kinetics. This is a fair assumption since sulphuric acid
is in a large amount (for cooling requirements).
The assumptions stated above lead to the following geometry.
Methodology:
Initially fluid flow in the geometry is used as a base model. Later transport of diluted species (with
reaction) and heat transfer are added and coupled with the initial physics. To keep the model simple,
vaporization is ignored for the time being.
Simulation results in velocity profiles, concentration profiles and heat transfer. In 2D axisymmetric
domain, the line integral of concentration along the radius multiplied with velocity gives the total species
transfer. Such units can be taken as an array to build the entire column.
Simulation Results:
Velocity
Concentration (NH3)
Temperature
With a steady state model in place, it has to be used now for actual equipment design. For this purpose
another simplifying assumption is made. For each Raschig ring, we assume pseudo steady state. Which
means, a single Raschig ring can be analysed for steady state model. However, two different rings may be
at different steady states. With steady state simulation as a base model, time dependent steady is carried
out.
The actual process of quenching operates at steady state. The time dependent analysis actually
simulates the spatial motion of a gas bubble across the column through different rings. For
example t=0, is the state when gas enters the column and t=tR is the state when gas leaves the
column. Therefore the final result of this analysis would provide the required residence time.
Since sulphuric acid is used in excess for cooling the gas and ammonia reacts to form salt in liquid phase,
the concentration of ammonia is neglect at each ring inlet.
Initial concentration of NH3 (assuming ideal gas mixture) is 0.0347 mol/m3. Final product should have
atleast 99% of ammonia removed. By transient analysis we plot the volume averaged concentration in gas
bubble vs time.
At about t=15s, the conc decreases below required value. Hence, the required residence time for the
reactor considering ammonia absorption is 15s.
However, for considering heat transfer, more careful analysis is needed because the ring inlet
temperature of liquid also changes across the length of column. The approach followed here is to use the
residence time obtained by mass transfer considerations and find the temperature change for various
values of ring inlet temperature ( ). Since the operation is like a counter current heat exchanger,
temperature of gas is taken as
. The transient temperature profile is normalized with .
It is observed that tR = 15s is sufficient for heat transfer operations also. Hence, this is the required
residence time.

Most of the ammonia plants set up in India until 1968 were on a turnkey basis. In 1966, the Government
of India decided to set up a series of single stream 600 TPD ammonia plants. Ammonia plants at
Durgapur, Barauni and Cochin were set up through foreign aid which also included supply of
equipment.Some of these plants have not performed well due to improper equipmentselection. Over a
period of time, the performance got worse and some of theseplants have been shut down. Subsequently,
Indian fertilizer companies selected reliable technology andproper equipment on the basis of competitive
bidding. With the discovery oflarge reserves of offshore gas, a number of 1350 TPD ammonia plants
arebeing installed based on technology supplied by Haldor Topsoe and M. W.
The 36% to 94% for naphtha based plants, 56% to 81 %for fuel oil-based plants, 44% to 92% for gas
based plants and only 20% to 42% for coal based plants. Specific energy consumption also showed wide
deviations with reference to the process, the feedstock and the year ofinstallation. The best performance
was recorded by the gas-based plant of 1FFCO, Kalol with 8.98 Kcal/tonne of ammonia. The source of
hydrogen was then changed over to fuel oil and finally to natural gas and naphtha. Natural gasis an ideal
feedstock, which is cheap, easily transportable by pipelines and relatively pure.capacity utilisation
(averaged over last five years) of the ammonia plantsvaried from plant to plant.
Propylene
In India total ethylene capacity is expected to reach 4987 KTA by 2016-17 and Reliance Industries Ltd has

Gujarat is India s Petro Capital State with % of Petrochemicals, % Chemicals and Pharmaceuticals
business. Ranking on top in Marine Production, Fisheries and Ports, the state has manufacturing India s
90% soda ash, 70% salt and 20% caustic soda. Petroleum and chemicals and Petroleum Investment
Region (PCPIR) is being set up at Dahej which may further add to strengthen the sector base.
Gujarat has the distinction of being the rst state to enact the Special Economic Zone SEZ Act,
.
Special Economic Zones (SEZs) are growth engines that can boost manufacturing, augment exports and
generate employment. The Government has introduced the scheme of SEZs in order to provide a hassle
free operational regime and encompassing state of the art infrastructure and support services.
Special Economic Zone (SEZ) is a specifically delineated duty free enclave and shall be deemed to be
foreign territory for the purpose of trade and operations and duty and tariffs. SEZ units may be set up for
manufacture of goods and for rendering of services public, private or joint sector or by the State
Government.
SEZs, cover industrial and labour aspects, including flexible labour laws and exit options. The Gujarat SEZ
Act, 2004 has made key provisions with respect to the appointment and termination of labour for units
established in SEZs.
he concept of Fixed erm Employment introduced by the SEZ Act has helped in accounting for the least
manpower days lost due to labour strife, among comparable industrial states.

Gujarat, the state which pioneered the concept of the Special Investment Region (SIR), will establish 12
new industrial hubs in the next 5-6 years and expects the private sector to play a leading role in
facilitating the process.Gujarat passed an act for the SIRs and set up the first such hub -- Petroleum
Chemical and Petrochemical Investment Region (PCPIR) spread across 4.53 lakh square hectare-- in
Bharuch recently.The state government now plans to set up the SIRs to act as industrial hubs for various
sectors
including
auto
ancillaries,
chemicals,
healthcare,
electronics
and
so
on.
Investment worth over Rs 70,000 crore has already gone into PCPIR and the official said similar
expenditure is likely to be incurred in other SIRs as well.
From the point of view of investement , Pro Industry Policies and other factors aforesaid BHARUCH ,
GUJARAT would be an ideal location for the plant based on our preliminary research.

Pinch Analysis:
Pinch analysis is a procedure that evolved during the energy crisis of 1970, from a necessity to increase
the energy savings, especially when using heat exchanger networks which resulted in optimization of
heat integration.
Significance of Pinch:
1. No heat is transferred across the pinch at minimum utilities.
2. Two heat exchanger networks are designed on either side of the pinch.
3. Energy is added on one side of the pinch and removed on the other side.
4. At the pinch all the hot streams are hotter than cold streams by min .
Methodology for pinch Analysis
a) Development of Composite Curves: The entire process is represented on a temperature enthalpy
diagram by composite curves which represent the cumulative heat sources and sinks within the
process. These composite curves are arrived at from stream data derived from a process heat and
material balance. These allow prediction of hot and cold targets ahead of design.
b) Grid Diagram Development: This is a diagram which helps in developing heat recovery
networking. The hot streams run from left to right while cold streams run counter-current at the
bottom.
c) Pinch Identification: A grand composite curve is drawn which is composed of the composite
curves for all the streams and the equipment are "appropriately placed". Appropriate placement
can be done for equipment that can be represented in terms of heat sources and sinks. This
implies that this can be used for heat pumps, distillation columns, evaporators, heat engines, etc.
From this grand composite curve, the pinch temperature can be determined.
