This case is directly from the module within EHY2102.

This expertise translates directly into career advancement and significant business impact. Process and plant engineers gain the skills to drive refinery profit by , debottlenecking units, and improving operations. The ability to troubleshoot and optimize models enables engineers to prevent bottlenecks and maximize profit in refinery operations. Furthermore, the course reduces process design time by allowing engineers to test various plant configurations and determine optimal process conditions in a virtual environment before physical changes are made.

Using Aspen HYSYS for optimizing process conditions to improve yield, efficiency, and profitability of refining operations.

This advanced course bridges the gap between basic process modeling and the specific, complex needs of a modern refinery. It focuses on using the specialized Aspen HYSYS Petroleum Refining suite to simulate everything from crude oil characterization to high-stakes reactor operations. Key Learning Objectives

: Tune models (especially distillation columns and reactors) to match actual plant data.

The Petroleum Distillation Column is the heart of the refinery simulation. Unlike standard distillation columns, the Petroleum Refiner in HYSYS allows for: This case is directly from the module within EHY2102

Hydrocracking is a bifunctional process:

Unlike simple conversion reactors, hydrotreating requires:

Practical application of Aspen HYSYS in modeling and simulating refining processes. This includes setting up simulations, specifying feedstocks and products, and analyzing process performance. The ability to troubleshoot and optimize models enables

: Construct complex refinery reactors and flowsheets to predict stream yields and properties.

The application of Aspen HYSYS in unit operations offers several benefits, including:

: Master techniques for importing and characterizing petroleum assays to track over 350 petroleum properties. Profit Evaluation

The foundation of any good refinery model is the assay. Unit O allows you to blend different crude oils to see how they interact. This is vital for refineries that switch feedstocks based on market prices. You can predict the yield of each cut (Light Naphtha, Heavy Naphtha, etc.) before the crude even hits the furnace.
