This book was released on 2016 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Methanol synthesis has been the subject of many improvements over the last decades since it became more cost effective and scalable than earlier high pressure technology. The synthesis of methanol from syngas has conventionally been carried out in adiabatic quench-type reactor in the gas phase where the only way to moderate the temperature is to inject shots of syngas at various position of the rector. However, because of the highly exothermic behavior of methanol synthesis reactions, the dissipation of heat has been a bottle-neck in the reactor design, and reactor configurations have a tendency to be complicated. This dissertation is divided into three parts presents a mathematical model of double-tube methanol reactor which was developed through cooperation between Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) and Mitsubishi Gas Company (MGC), methanol synthesis process flowsheet was developed and fully integrated with the Genetic Algorithms that generated a set of optimal operating conditions with respect to upper and lower limits and several constraints, and a dynamic optimization approaches to derive the ideal operating conditions for a Lurgi type reactor in the presence of catalyst deactivation. This study proposes a new approach based on a hybrid algorithm combining genetic algorithm (GA) and generalized pattern search (GPS) derivative-free methodologies to provide a sufficiently good solution to this dynamic optimization problem. The hybrid GA-GPS algorithm has the advantage of sequentially combining GA and GPS logics; while GA, as the most popular evolutionary algorithm, effectively explore the landscape of the fitness function and identify promising areas of the search space, GPS efficiently search existing basins in order to find an approximately optimal solution. The simulation results showed that implementing the shell temperature trajectory derived by the proposed approach with 5% recycle ratio of CO2 increased the production of methanol by approximately 2.5% compared to the existing operating conditions.

Book excerpt: Increasing awareness of the environmental issues forces a strong drive towards the development of new, sustainable processes for renewable energy production. Likewise, the economic issues related to the increasing prices of crude oil, and its derivatives lead to the recognition of advantages of alternative fuels, thus a significant interest in biomass-derived, synthetic fuels is observed. Among various thermo-chemical conversion processes, biomass gasification is one of the most effective, efficient and sustainable solutions to the production of renewable energy. It provides a gaseous fuel, composed mainly of carbon monoxide and hydrogen, suitable to produce chemicals, heat, and energy. In particular, syngas can be used to obtain methanol (MeOH) and dimethyl ether (DME), both energy carriers of great interest for many advanced energy applications. The herein presented work provides the reader with a comparison of the technicalities as well as economics of methanol and DME production from biomass-derived syngas, by different pathways. For that purpose a process simulation by means of the ChemCAD® commercial code was used. The developed simulation strategies include both, optimization of the kinetic models and unique solution of fuel refinement.

Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and dis seminated by the Center for lnformation and Numerica/ Data Analysis and Synthesis (C/NDAS) * at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the ac tivity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficia! to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After fi ve years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of ali concerned if the printing and distribution of the volume were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and App/ied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. Ali back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 21 (thesis year 1976) a total of 10,586 theses titles from 25 Canadian and 219 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for theses titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work.
