Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立中央大學 === 化學工程與材料工程研究所 === 98 === This thesis contains two parts。The first part is a Design of Experiment(DOE) of a two-bed-eight-step PSA process of dehydration ethanol from previous work of our group. Feed pressure, production time, purge time, backfill time and feed temperature are the factors of full factorial design of experiment. The process of second part comes from previous work of our group but some operating conditions had changed. Besides adding one adsorption bed to the process, a storage tank is also added。Expecting recovery could be increased by removing purge step and at the same time some operating conditions are also altered to keep ethanol purity at 99.5wt% which fits the goal of dehydration ethanol。The PSA process is a three-bed-nine step process. Feed pressure, feed temperature, vent pressure, production time and backfill time are chosen to do full factorial design factors of experimental design。
