executive summary

In this project we made a PFD (process flow diagram) for the manufacture of benzene via the thermal dealkylation of tuluence. Hydrogen reacts with toluene at high temperature to form benzene and methane according to the stoichiometry:

All simulations were done by using the process simulator software ChemCad. All the data needed for simulation were obtained from Table 18.1, which represents the input properties of the equipments and Table 18.2, which represents the feed stream propert...
