Reaction process simulation of ethanol-amine formation by EO-NH_3 method

Yanhui Li, Wang Yongzong, Hong Wang

Abstract

Simulation model of ethanol-amine formation reaction through EO-NH3 method was established with PROII software.Calculation results of this simulation model were very close to real data from existing plant.Product distributions of ethanol-amine at different NH3/EO mole ratio were calculated by using this model.The impact of monoethanolamine(MEA) and diethanolamine(DEA) recirculation on products distribution was investigated.Operating parameter optimization method was discussed,where the target product is MEA,DEA and triethanolamine(TEA) respectively.For different target product distribution scheme,most suitable operating parameters can be calculated by using this model to maximize the output of target products.
