To overcome this situation, various process flowsheet simulators are used. This book describes the simulation, optimization, dynamics and closed-loop control of a wide variety of chemical processes using the most popular commercial flowsheet simulator Aspen . The book presents the Aspen simulation of a large variety of chemical units, including flash drum, continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR), plug flow reactor (PFR), petroleum refining column, heat exchanger, ...
