approach

It is a computer program that Optimization


quantitatively model the equations of
a process in terms of material and
energy streams.
• Material stream:
a) Define components
b) Define compositions
c) Define mass
d) Temperature
e) Pressure

• Energy stream:
a) Heat flow
• The following instructions are followed:
{Setting up the crack license steps 1 - 9}
1. Shut down all other programs on the computer before starting
the installation process
2. Open the folder AspenOne V9.0 then open
install_Sentinel.RMS.8.5.1.Server
3. Right click on Setup and “Run as administrator”
4. Go to my computer and right click at any empty space then
properties to know the name of the computer
5. Click on “Advanced system settings” at “Advanced tap” then
click “Environment variables” then click “new” (system
variables)
6. Write in variable name: LSHOST
7. Write in variable value: “the name of computer”
8. Repeat step “2” and then open “TOOLS” then WLMADMIN.exe
right click and run as administrator”
9. Click at Subnet Server then right click “add feature” from a file
to server and its files and select “license” = LSERVRC
…………………….wait to download all the files to the defined
server depending on the computer speed
10. Open “aspenONE_V9_ENG” folder
11. Right click Setup and then “run as administrator”
12. Install AspenONE and error appeared
“.Net 3.5”
13. Open “3rd Party Redistributables” and install 3.5 but it needs
internet connection. After install this feature
14. Repeat step 11 to install now

The time for installment depends on the computer speed


1. Gas/Oil separator
Natural separation by gravity separates the gas hydrocarbon from heavier oil or multi-stage separators by the aid
of heating or cooling

2. Dehydration
Free water is removed from the produced natural gas by using ethylene glycol (glycol injection) as an absorption
mechanism

3. Contaminant removal
Elimination of hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide, water vapor, helium and oxygen by using amine solutions

4. Nitrogen extraction
The stream goes to the Nitrogen Rejection Unit (NRU). Using thermodynamics, the nitrogen is cryogenically
separated and vented.

5. Methane separation
The process of demethanizing the gas stream can occur as a separate operation in the gas plant or as part of the
NRU operation.

6. Fractionation
Fractionation, the process of separating the various NGLs present in the remaining gas stream, uses the varying
boiling points of the individual hydrocarbons in the stream, by now virtually all NGLs, to achieve the task.
1. Define material streams
- Specify components
- Specify compositions
- Specify flow rate
- Specify pressure and temperature
- How to calculate dew and bubble points?
- How to draw the property diagrams?
- How to define unlisted component?
2. Define energy streams
- Specify heat flow
3. Define fluid package
- How to select the suitable fluid package?
