EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Polygeneration plant of off-grid solar power, biomass, ethanol and cooling


produces ethanol for industries, electricity for local society in Indragiri Hilir, Riau
and cooling for local public school. This plant uses empty fruit bunch (EFB) as
raw material along with solar power from photovoltaic method. In order to
produce this product, this plant need some equipment to use such as elevator,
conveyor, shredder, reactor, distillation column, pump, heat exchanger, deaerator,
boiler, condenser, separator, centrifuge, clarifier, filter, absorption chiller, and
pipe. based on the energy balance calculated, the process of manufacturing need
much energy, therefore to build power generation from turbine in this plant.
Through power generation to produce electricity, the plant adapted the combined
cooling and power (CCP). Process manufacturing and power generation in this
plant also produces some waste especially during separation in distillation
column, clarifier, centrifuge and flash separator. This waste mostly contains solid
waste and liquid waste. Through this plant, ethanol produced per hour is 768 kg,
electricity generated is about 27.5 MW and 280 PK cooling capacity.
Water utility mass balance is also determined in this assignment on order
to calculate the size of all equipment in water utility. The water that should be
obtained from the sea for water utility is about 1,100,000 kg/h. This amount will
be divided to fulfil cooling water and boiler feed water (BFW) of this
polygeneration plant. Intake basin from the sea about 200 m from the plant will be
built with travelling screen to separate big impurities like fish or seaweed. After
that, seawater will be pumped with cooling water pump. NaOCl will be added to
kill microorganism that harmfull to the process system. An additional strainer also
installed in order to ensure large particle dont pass to the process. Reverse
osmosis is used to reduce the amount of mineral from seawater. Ion exchange
resin is also installed to reduce significantly the amount of ions both cation and
anion. Boiler feed waters CO2 and O2 concentration has to be low to reduce
corrosion. Therefore, the deaerator also installed to treat boiler feed water.
The process in polygeneration plant, both in main process and utilities,
using a bucket elevator, a shredder, conveyor, 4 mixer, 2 deaerator, 4 reactor, 1

flash separator, 1 PF Filter, 1 boiler, 9 condenser, 3 reboiler, pumps, 1 turbine, 4
heat exchangers, 3 distillation column, 1 clarifier, 1 centrifuge, 2 reverse osmosis
train, cartridge filter, ion exchangers, deaerators and photovoltaic. All the process
equipment mentioned above should be designed and calculated to continue to the
next step of preliminary design which is instrument analysis and economic
analysis. In terms of the processes that occur in the chemical industry in general,
consists of two kinds of processes; the chemical process / chemical reaction (to
form new substances) and physical processes (physical changes). All the
equipment is sized manually, beside that there are several equipment that we sized
with software as comparison. Also, some equipment is designed using vendor data
and information, such as Babcock & Wilcox for boiler and DOW for reverse
osmosis.
In order to make easier, efficient and safe plant, piping and
instrumentation diagram is also play an important role needed to put controls of
some variable in plant production such as temperature, pressure, flow rate, pH and
level. on the other hand, this instrumentation also makes this plant safely to work
with high pressure operating condition. The instrumentation in this plant divided
into controller, transmitter and analyser which works together in controlling plant.
This piping and instrumentation diagrams are divided into five areas based on
process flow diagram in previous assignment, which are pre-treatment, ethanol
production, ethanol fermentation, condensate treatment and electricity production.
The consideration when determining control for process are including
safety factor, environmental protection factor, equipment protection factor,
smooth operation and production rate factor, product quality factor, profit and
monitoring diagnosis. First thing to consider is safety factor such as pressure in
vessels which is controlled using pressure safety valve. Environmental factor is
also considered in controlling temperature and quality of waste water from the
plant. Equipment protection is also important for example protection for pumps
using level controller to ensure that only liquid which entering the pumps. Flow
controller is also used to ensure smooth operation and production rate. Product
quality is controlled using analyszer in ethanol product.

1.2. Water Utility Sizing

1.2.1. Utility Process Description and Equipment

The water requirement for the plant is derived from Wain River which has 1.2 km
distance with our plant. To ensure a continuous supply of water, it was built on the
location of the water reservoir (water intake) which is also a pre-treatment of sea water.
This processing includes filtering waste and impurities carried along the water.
Furthermore, water is pumped to the factory to be processed and used as needed. We need
water for utility and raw material for steam reformer. There is a specialization of water
treatment for raw material, because we need to demineralize the water first. Here the
steps for water treatment that we design regarding the process flow diagram:
1. Screening
2. Stainer
3. Catride Filter
4. RO Unit 1
5. RO Unit 2
6. Ion Exchanger
7. Dearator

1.2.3.3. Pipe

Pipe is an important element in a plant because it is connecting one


equipment with another. Not only in main process unit, sizing pipe in water
process utility is an important thing to do. Plant layout is needed to sizing the
whole pipe, this pipe sizing is just preferred to the pipeline through the pump.

APPENDICES

Appendix A. Warehouse
The warehouse is used to stocking the raw materials (Empty Fruit
Bunches). The raw materials are stocked every day from the supplier. The
warehouse is a rectangle building with a triangular prism roofs. Some
specifications that should be known are
Bulk density for nickel ore is 1150 kg/m3
The processs will be done with feed flow rate is 600 tons/day or 25 tons/h
Basic Planning
Construction materials : Concrete
Materials Store = 1150 kg/m3
Raw Material Volume
Volume = 600,000 kg /1150 kg/m3 = 530 m3
To ensure that the warehouse is safe and not overloaded, we decided to make the
ware house is 90% full. So the ware house volume is
Volume warehouse = 530 m3 : 0.9 = 588.88 m3
Volume of warehouse = length x width x height = 4 : 3: 1
Length = 4 x 3.66 = 14.64 m
Width = 3 x 3.66 = 10.98 m
Height = 1 x 3.66 = 3.66 m

Appendix B. Storage tank


In this off-grid plant is used vessel in process and utility. Vessel is used for
tank in proses or ulitity for pressure fluida.
1. Determine Storage Capacity In this case, we choose storage capacity is about
for storing 7-days of production.
Table B.1. Storage Tank Capacity

Storage Name Storage Capacity (m3)


V-Ethanol 776.354
V-EG 78.280
V-H2SO4 64636.910

2. Choose Storage Tank Type: Vertical or Horizontal In this part, we determine


which type of storage tank that we should choose based on our storage
capacity.

Figure B.1. Algorithm to Choose Storage Tank Type Horizontal/Vertical

Capacity for ethanol and Ethylen Glycol , and H2SO4 > 38 m3 , so it used
Vertical Concrete Foundation type.
3. Choose Storage Tank Type: Slim or Fat
In this part, off-grid plant determine length and diameter ratio of storage
based on vessel function.

Figure B.2. Algorithm to Choose Storage Tank Type Slim/Fat

Because storage tank in off-grid plant is for storing liquid and using concrete
plant so it choose L/D ratio around 0.8-1 for Ethanol, EG, H2SO4, and water
tank in utility . In this case, off-grid plant choose 0.8 ratio. Because the taller
tank, will be more troubled by wind.
4. Calculate Internal Diameter and Length

Previously, off-grid plant have chosen 0.8 L/D ratio. So diameter calculation

() = 0.8
5. Determine Material of Storage Tank Basic
Consideration of determining material is corrosion resistance. There are some
liquid in off-grid plant corrosif such as H2SO4, so it will choose to use
stainless steel 316 as the material. While for Ethanol and EG, because they
are not corrosif so it chooce stainless stell. For vessel in utility is used HDPE
material.
6. Calculate Vessel Thickness
To calculate vessel thickness :
PR
ts = +
SE 0.6 P
7. Determine Open or Closed Head
Head or roof would be chosen if liquid is not volatile and closed head would
be chosen if liquid is volatile. Because material in off-grid plant is volatile,
acid, flammable so off-grid plant choose closed head.

Ion exchanger
Here is the step for determining cation and anion exchanger column size.
1. Calculate Tank Dimension
Mineral Removed =
Cation Losses x Water Flow Rate x Total Cation Inlet x Regeneration Cycle

Tank Empty Space = 75%xResin Bed Height


Sand Layer = 50%xResin Bed Height
Total Bed Height = Resin Bed Height + Sand Layer + Graver Height
Total Tank Height = Empty Space + Total Bed Height

Deaerator
Here is the step for determining Deaerator column size.
1. Calculate Tank Capacity
water for aeration = 5,748.41 kg/h = 0.5748 m/h
Resisdance Time = 15 second = 0.25 h
Safety factor = 20% (Peter and Timmerhouse, 1991, hal. 37)
Volume of Water = 0.5748 m/h x 0.25 h = 0.1437 m
Universitas Indonesia
67

Volume of Tanki = 1.2 x 0.1437 m = 0.17244 m


2. Determine Tank Dimension
Top volume is Torispherical Flanged and Dished Head

Vtangki = DH + 0.1039D + 0.1039D = 4.1348D

H/D = 5
Vtangki = 4.1348D
0.17244 m = 4.1348 x D
D = 0.762 m
H/D = 5
H/0.762 m = 5
H = 3.811 m
Because D < D standart so it use standart diameter = 0.9144 m = 3 ft = 36 in
H < H standart so it use satndart height = 4.5721 m = 15 ft = 180 in
3. Calculate Tank Capacity
Pabs = Poperation + Phidrostatis
(h 1)
Pabs = 29.4 psi +

61.9399 lb/ft x(15 1)
Pabs = 29.4 psi +

Pabs = 35.421 psi
Design pressure 5-10% above absolute pressure (Coulson, 1988 hal.637).
Design pressure that choose is 10% above.
Pdesign = 1.1 xPabs = 1.1 x 35.421 psi = 38.964 psi

We choose the wider area as the minimum cross-sectional area for the
distillation column, which is 0.4243 m2. Therefore, the diameter is 0.735 meters.

Calculation of Column Height


First, we have to calculate the number of stage. We know from the
simulation that the minimum reflux ratio (RDm) is 4.834. Assume that the external
reflux ratio (RD) is 1.5 times RDm, so RDis 7.252. We use Gilliand equation and
graph to get the number of stage. We know that the minimum tray is 12.656.

Second, we assume that a plate spacing is 0.5 m. Therefore, the height is


18 stages x 0.5 meter/stage = 9 meters. The top and bottom space height is
assumed to be 0.25 m while bottom space height is also assumed to be 0.25 m.
Therefore, we can conclude that column height is 10.28 meters.

Appendix L. Belt Conveyor


Belt Conveyor (1-CO-1) is used to transport Empty Fruit Bunches. The
capacity of the conveyor is 25 tons/h. Belt conveyor will be installed with the total
length of 8 m with elevation of 30. Another design parameter for the belt
conveyor:
a. Belt speed
Belt speed is the speed in order to fulfill our production capacity, which is 25
tons/hour.
b. Belt width
Belt width needs to be adjusted so that it can fulfill the nickel ore capacity.
From Tabel A.1, because the capacity of conveyor should be 25 tons/h, the belt
width should be above 16 inches. To ensure that the conveyor don't use too
much spaces, we decided to use 16 inches belt width with 300 elevation, thus
giving maximum capacity 29.16 tons/h.

1) Consider feed source, feed quality, feed/product flow, and required


product quality.

2) Select the flow configuration and number of passes.


The selected configuration is plug flow and number of passes is 1.
3) Select membrane element type.
The membrane type is chosen using DOW seawater reverse osmosis
product which is recommended based on the permeate flow and feed
water source. Table N.2 show the DOW reverse osmosis product.
Based on Table N.2, SW30HR is chosen.

4) Select average membrane flux.


Average membrane flux is determined using typical data for seawater
open intake source based on Table N.4 is 19 gfd.

5) Calculate the number of elements needed.


Divide the design permeate flowrate QP by the design flux f and by the
membrane surface area of the selected element SE (ft2 or m2) to obtain
the number of elements NE.

6) Calculate number of pressure vessels needed.


Divide the number of elements NE by the number of elements per
pressure vessel, NEpV, to obtain the number of pressure vessels, NV
round up to the nearest integer. For large systems, 6-element vessels
are standard, but vessels with up to 8 elements are available. For
smaller and/or compact systems, shorter vessels may be selected.

7) Select number of stages.

The number of stages defines how many pressure vessels in series the
feed will pass through until it exits the system and is discharged as
concentrate. Every stage consists of a certain number of pressure
vessels in parallel. The number of stages is a function of the planned
system recovery, the number of elements per vessel, and the feed water
quality. The higher the system recovery and the lower the feed water
quality, the longer the system will be with more elements in series. The
selected stages for 6 element vessels is 2 stage basen on Table N.5.

8) Select the staging ratio.


Selected staging ratio is 2:1..
