Simulation of VOCs Recovery Process by Absorption

Article Preview

Abstract:

Using a simulation program, an absorption process has been simulated of an air stream contaminated with acetone using water as absorbent and the subsequent recovery of the solvent by distillation. After verifying the effectiveness of the simulated process, the next step was to carry out an economic analysis at the level of equipment to assess the economic viability of the simulated recovery plant.
