Description:

This paper describes how the same core dynamic model has been used for both online and offline process control, engineering studies, operations coordination and operator training in support of the operation of a large crude distillation unit. Figure 1 is a simplified process flow diagram of the unit. This crude unit has a typical configuration with three stripped side stream products, four pumparounds and a complex preheat train. In addition, the straight run naphtha is stabilized by removal of C,‘s and lighter, and then separated by a splitter tower into light and heavy grades. The dynamic model includes the atmospheric tower and associated equipment including side stream strippers, the stabilizer tower and splitter tower.
