Which property method should I use, when modeling Sour Water systems in Aspen HYSYS V11.0?


Solution

Aspen HYSYS V11 features a new Sour Water property package, which models the removal of H2S, NH3, and other contaminants from water.

Advantages of using Sour Water Property Package are:
  • Rigorous rate-based distillation
  • Enables the modeling of both reaction kinetics & mass transfer
  • Auto-generated Reaction Chemistries
  • Integration with Column Analysis
Several useful examples of the sour water stripping process are provided in the Aspen HYSYS | Samples | Sour Water Stripping folder and these can serve as templates for all supported processes.
The “Sour PR” or “Sour SRK” is the recommended property package for sour water stripping processes in V10 or prior. Check the KB Artcile below for more details. https://esupport.aspentech.com/S_Article?id=000029080
