Abstract:

The article presents the result of mathematical calculation of the parameters of the isomerization process, such as material balance, heat balance, calculation of the reactor block and hydraulic calculation of the reactor. The paper presents a theoretical analysis and comparison of data obtained at industrial installations of the isomerization process. With the help of the introduced mathematical calculations of isomerization, it is possible to compare the efficiency of the operation of various isomerization units and choose a more suitable option for optimizing the process for a given feedstock. The article provides examples of calculations for the scheme of the isomerization process with a production of 13888 kg / h.
