Using a Process Simulator to Improve Sulphur Recovery
Increasingly stringent sulphur emissions regulations often require renovation of older sulphur recovery units (SRUs) to improve overall recovery. Optimization or modification of an existing Claus SRU or the design of a new unit can be simplified by use of a process simulator. In this paper, Karl W. Mattsson-Bozé and Lili G. Lyddon of Bryan Research & Engineering present examples to show how TSWEET® can be used to model a Claus SRU and then to simulate modifications to aid in evaluating the best design.
