Abstract
The object of research is the installation of rectification columns for benzene, ethylbenzene, and polyalkylbenzenes. The purpose of this work is an optimization of rectification technological modes and energy efficiency increasing of distillation in the technology of ethylbenzene production by replacing of the used in reboilers vapor at 4 MPa by vapor at 2 MPa. The pro posed optimization option of the rectification unit is efficient since the implementation of the proposed technical solution will be achieved using Vapor 2 with increased efficiency of the process, namely a reduction of vapor consumption. The total consumption of vapor after the upgrade will be 2.751 Gcal / hour, which is 2168 Gcal per year less than the current vapor load.
