Simulation of the acrylic acid production process through catalytic oxidation of gaseous propylene using ChemCAD ® simulator

ABSTRACT In the following study, the simulation of the polymeric-grade acrylic acid (AA) production process is carried out using the simulator ChemCAD® version 5.2.0., in order to obtain mass balance results in all the process streams and also to know the most important design parameters of the equi...
