Simulation Ammonia Plant On PRO II
Simulation Ammonia Plant On PRO II
Ammonia Synthesis
ABSTRACT
Over 100 million tons of ammonia are produced each year. The rewards for reducing costs, increasing
efficiency and improving the profitability of ammonia plants are enormous. Computer simulation of the plant
is the first step towards identifying which parameters control the conversion rate, the product purity, the energy
usage and the production rate.

In the secondary reformer, air is introduced to supply the nitrogen. The heat of combustion of the partially
reformed gas raises the temperature and supplies the energy to reform most of the remaining hydrocarbon
feed.
The reformer product stream is used to generate steam and to preheat the natural gas feed.

Stage 2: Shift and Methanation
The shift conversion is carried out in two stages. The first uses a high temperature catalyst and the second
uses a low temperature one.
The shift convertors remove the carbon monoxide produced in the reforming stage by converting it to carbon
dioxide by the reaction:
CO + H

This reaction also creates additional hydrogen for the ammonia synthesis.
Shift reactor effluent is cooled and the condensed water is separated. The gas is then passed to the
purification section where carbon dioxide is removed from the synthesis gas in any one of a number of systems
such as hot carbonate, MEA, Selexol etc.
After the purification stage, the last traces of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide are removed in the
methanation reactions:

Stage 3: Compression
The purified synthesis gas is cooled and the condensed water is removed. The gas is then compressed in
a three stage unit. The centrifugal compressors are driven by steam turbines using steam generated in the
plant itself, reducing overall power consumption.
Stage 4: Conversion
The compressed synthesis gas is dried, mixed with a recycle stream and introduced into the synthesis loop
after the recycle compressor. The gas mixture is chilled and liquid ammonia is removed from the secondary
separator. The vapor is heated and passed to the ammonia converter. The feed is preheated inside the
convertor before entering the catalyst bed.

The ammonia synthesis reaction is:

Very high pressures (typically in excess of 300 atmospheres) are required in order to obtain a reasonable
conversion. The conversion of hydrogen per pass is still less than 30% and so a large recycle of unreacted
gases is necessary.
The convertor vapor product is cooled by ammonia refrigeration in the primary separator to condense the
ammonia product.
A purge is removed from the remaining gases to prevent the build up of inerts in the loop. The molar
concentration of inerts (argon and methane) in the convertor feed is maintained at 12%.
ENERGY INTEGRATION
The process features a high level of energy integration. Nearly all the power and heating requirements of
the process are met by the heat available elsewhere in the process.
In the Reformer
The primary reformer passes the natural gas and steam mixture through catalyst-packed tubes in a furnace.
The furnace exhaust gases are used to generate steam in a series of boilers. This steam is then used to
drive the compressors.
The effluent from the secondary reformer is used in a waste heat boiler and then to preheat the feed to the
desulfurizer.
In the Shift and Methanators
The methanator feed is preheated by exchanging with the methanator product and then further heated by
exchange with the high temperature shift reactor effluent. Energy from this effluent is further recovered in a
waste heat boiler.
The effluent from the low temperature shift reaction is used in another reboiler.
In the Conversion
The products from the ammonia converter are mixed with the synthesis gas from the compressors and cooled
for ammonia separation by exchange with the converter feed. The convertor feed is preheated by the
products inside the convertor vessel.
MATERIAL RECYCLE
The final stage, the Synthesis Loop, is a recycle operation. The conversion of nitrogen and hydrogen to
ammonia in the converter is very low - less than 30% of the hydrogen is converted per pass. Therefore there
has to be a large recycle in order to convert all the feed and ensure that the final ammonia product reaches
the required purity.
The ratio of recycle to ammonia product is of the order of 3:1.

PROCESS SIMULATION
The full input for the simulation may be found in Appendix B. Fragments of the input are shown here to
illustrate points of interest. For detailed explanations of all the input data, please refer to the PRO/II Keyword
Input Manual, which may be obtained from SimSci.
The Simulation Flowsheets shown below differ from the previous process flowsheets in that they include
stream identifiers and show the way the simulation is solved. This is especially important for recycle solutions,
both for thermal recycles and material recycles.
A full flowsheet may be found in Appendix A.
General Data
Because stage 4 of this process involves a loop which has a large recycle rate in comparison to the product
rates, it is essential that the flowsheet balances. The normal stream recycle convergence tolerances must
therefore be tightened - in this case to 0.05%. The threshold mole fraction limit for trace components in the
recycle is also reduced in order to ensure that all components are checked for the loop convergence.
The maximum allowed number of recycle trials is increased to 100 and, to check the overall balance, PRO/II
is asked to carry out an overall material balance (MBAL)

Component Data
All the components in the simulation are in the PRO/II data bank.
Thermodynamic Data
For most of the units in the flowsheet the Soave-Redlich-Kwong (SRK) equation of state is an excellent
predictor of phase equilibrium and thermal properties. However, in stage 4 where the ammonia is being
separated from the recycle gas in flash units, a more accurate prediction is needed to represent the interaction
between ammonia and the other components in the streams. For this, a second method is defined with SRK
interaction parameters:

Stream Data
Feed Streams
The main feed streams - natural gas, steam and air - are defined in the normal way by rate, composition,
temperature and pressure. In addition there is a water feed to the MEA plant which ensures that the syngas
leaves the plant saturated.
Recycle Streams
There is a recycle stream in stage 4. Because of the large flowrate of this stream relative to the flowsheet
feeds and products and because the ammonia species is created in the recycle, an initial estimate of the rate
and composition of the recycle stream is supplied.
$ RECYCLE GUESS
PROP STRM=31R, TEMP=85, PRES=4660, *
COMP=5,6000 / 6,2000 / 7,300 / 8,1000 / 13,700
Other Streams
There are several thermal recycles in this flowsheet. These may be simulated in several ways
-- they can be input as they are and allowed to converge naturally
-- they may be replaced by simpler units and solved rigorously after the flowsheet has solved
-- they may be circumvented by using the REFERENCE STREAM facility.
PROP STRM=13, REFS=11, TEMP=400, PRES=274 $ LTS SHIFT FEED
PROP STRM=21, REFS=19, TEMP=675, PRES=254 $ METHANATOR FEED
In stage 2, the feed to the low temperature shift reactor (stream 13) is referenced to the high temperature
shift product (stream 11). This defines all the properties of stream 13 except temperature and pressure,
which are always as defined on this instruction. Similarly, stream 21 is referenced to stream 19. These
reference streams allow the heat exchangers to be solved separately after converging the air flowrate
controller loop.
Stream 13 is not defined as a product from a unit operation. However, in stage 4, stream 38B is a unit
operation product. Nevertheless, in order to eliminate a thermal recycle around the Ammonia Converter, it
is referenced to stream 38.
PROP STRM=38B, REFS=38, PRESS=4780, TEMP=575
This means that stream 38B takes its composition and rate at all times from stream 38 but its temperature
and pressure are calculated by the heat exchanger from which it is a product.
10
Unit Operations for Stage 1 - Catalytic Reforming
Input
Since there is no sulfur in the input, the Desulfurizer RX1 can be modeled as an isothermal flash to set the
temperature and pressure of the reformer feed.
Both the reformers, RX2 and RX3, are modeled as Gibbs Free Energy reactors with typical temperature
approaches specified.
The rate of air feed to the secondary reformer must be such that the syngas product from stage 2 has the
correct nitrogen:hydrogen ratio. This is achieved by putting a controller on the stage 2 Methanator product
and varying the air feed rate to the secondary reformer. This means that stages 1 and 2 are in a controller
loop.
To satisfy the primary reformer, the molar ratio of steam (stream 5) to natural gas (stream 1) should be 6:1.
The flow rate of the steam could be set to the correct value in the Stream Data Section. However, that would
involve calculating the molar rate of natural gas (the stream is known only in volume units) before the
simulation begins. It is much easier to let the program do the calculation. Furthermore, now the natural gas
stream can be changed at any time (for a turndown case or a different design case) and the steam rate is
automatically recalculated.

The secondary reformer product (stream 8) is used to preheat the desulfurizer feed (stream 2). This thermal
recycle is not a simple one in that the process demands a fixed temperature for both the products from
exchanger X-1. This is achieved by dividing the exchanger into two halves: the cold side is X-1A and is
solved before the desulfurizer; the secondary reformed product is cooled in H-1, a combination of waste heat
boiler WHB1 and the hot side of X-1.

After stages 1 and 2 have solved, H-1 is divided into WHB1 and the hot side of X-1 (X-1B). This can be
achieved because PRO/II allows streams to be feeds to more than one unit although care must be taken not
to duplicate product stream names (hence stream 10X). This procedure also uses the facility to reference
duties from one exchanger to another.

DEFI DUTY, AS, HX=X-1A, DUTY, MULTIPLY, -1.0
WHB1s duty is calculated as the difference between the duties of H-1 and X-1A. X1-Bs duty is simply the
same as that for X1-A but with the opposite sign.
Results
The stream calculator determines the steam flowrate as 3953 lb mole/hr which is six times the natural gas
flowrate.
Virtually all of the C2 and higher hydrocarbons are broken down in the primary reformer and converted to
hydrogen, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. 58% of the methane in the feed is also converted. 95% of
the residual methane is converted in the secondary reformer along with the remaining traces of ethane and
propane. All of the oxygen is consumed in the secondary reformer.
The duties of WHB1 and X-1 are 53.7 and 4.2 MM Btu/hr respectively.

Unit Operations for Stage 2 - Catalytic Shift and Methanation
Input
Both the High Temperature Shift Reactor (RX4) and the Low Temperature Shift Reactor (RX5) are modeled
by the general reactor unit operation using built-in shift reaction equilibrium data. They operate adiabatically
and the products are assumed to be at equilibrium.
The MEA plant removes the bulk (99.92%) of the carbon dioxide from the shift reactor product and is modeled
as a stream calculator (T-1). The treated gas is saturated with water in flash unit SAT and excess water
discharged.
The final part of stage 2 is the Methanator (RX6), modeled by the general reactor unit using built-in methanator
and shift reaction equilibrium data. The reactor operates adiabatically and equilibrium is assumed to be
achieved.
The syngas must have a hydrogen:nitrogen molar ratio of 3:1 to satisfy the stoichiometry of the ammonia
reaction. This is accomplished by inserting a controller to measure that ratio in the Methanator product and
vary the air feed to the Secondary Reformer until the required ratio is achieved. Thus there is a significant
loop involving most of the units of stages 1 and 2. This makes it all the more important for any thermal
recycles within that loop to be eliminated if at all possible.
The thermal recycle in stage 2 of the plant is a complex one, involving preheating the Methanator feed first
with its own product and then with the RX4 product. This recycle is eliminated by referencing streams 13
and 21 to bypass these exchangers completely.
13
Stream 13 is the same as stream 11 except for its temperature and pressure, both of which are known.
Therefore stream 13 is set in the Stream Data Section and referenced to stream 11. It gets its rate and
composition from stream 11 and its conditions from the Stream Data Section.
In the same way, stream 21 is referenced to stream 19.
After the control loop has solved, exchangers X-2, WHB2 and X-3 are solved in the normal way, except that
product stream names must not be duplicated.
Results
The controller solves after 3 trials with an air flowrate of 1009 lb mole/hr. This produces the required
hydrogen:nitrogen ratio in the product from the methanator.
85% of the carbon monoxide is converted in RX-4 and 93% of the remainder is converted in RX-5. This gives
a concentration of 0.055% carbon monoxide and 11.1% carbon dioxide in the exit gas from RX-5. The
concentration of carbon dioxide is reduced to 0.02% in the MEA Plant.
The final removal of all the carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide is carried out in the methanator reactor.
Unit Operations for Stage 3- Compression
Input
The Condensate Separator (D-2) is modeled as a flash unit, decanting water in a declared water stream and
using the PRO/II built-in water solubility data.
The compressors are modeled as single stage isentropic compressions with a specified adiabatic efficiency
of 95%. Each one has an aftercooler reducing the product temperature to 95 F. The first and second
compressors also have water decantation streams to knock out any liquid water that may have condensed
out in the aftercoolers. Finally, all the remaining water is removed in a drying unit (SEP1), modeled as a
stream calculator.
Results
The compressor work for the three stages is 1752, 1831 and 1778 HP respectively. The corresponding
aftercooler duties are 4.73, 4.70 and 4.35 MM Btu/hr.
Most of the water is removed after the first compressor with smaller amounts after the other two. The final
separator removes all remaining water from the synthesis loop feed.
14
Unit Operations for Stage 4 - Conversion
Input
The fourth compressor (CP-4) is in the ammonia recycle loop. The loop starts at that unit, stream 31R being
the main recycle stream. An initial estimate for this stream is needed, as discussed in the Stream Data
Section above.
The Ammonia Converter feed is preheated by exchanging inside the converter with its product stream. This
exchanger is modeled separately in the flowsheet as FDEF. The exchangers before the separators do not
appear on the simulation flowsheet as they are combined with the separators.
There are two thermal recycles in the loop. The loop involving the convertor and feed preheater is split by
referencing the convertor feed (stream 38B) to the product from exchanger X-4 (stream 38) in the Stream
Data Section. FDEF is then solved after the convertor when both feed streams have been calculated.
The loop involving exchanger X-4 is solved explicitly as it appears in the flowsheet. This involves introducing
an inner loop within the ammonia recycle loop. This loop could also be eliminated by using the devices
mentioned above.
The Ammonia Converter (RX-7) is modeled using a general reactor model with supplied equilibrium data.

APPR DT=20
The reference condition for heat of reaction data is given as vapor at 800 F and the stoichiometry represents
the well-known ammonia synthesis reaction. The heat of reaction is given as -45.18 thousand energy units
per mole of base component reacted, in this case nitrogen. The equilibrium constant is a function of
temperature according to the Arrhenius equation:
Ln(Keq) = A + B/T
15
The equilibrium constant is computed at a temperature equal to the reaction temperature minus the approach
temperature difference given.
The feed to the reactor has to contain 12 mole% of inerts (argon and methane). This is achieved by varying
the rate of the recycle stream 31R using a controller (CTL1). Because this stream is also the recycle stream
for the main loop, the action of the controller could conflict with the recycle convergence. This is avoided by
solving the recycle before the controller is invoked.
In order to maintain the inerts material balance, a purge stream is taken off the recycle stream. The rate of
this stream is calculated in a calculator (BD-1).

The calculator builds a dummy stream 31X consisting of stream 28, the dry syngas feed to the loop, minus
the products from the loop, streams 32 and 37. The splitter SP1 operates such that the argon rate in the
purge stream 31P is equal to the argon rate in the dummy stream 31X - in other words equal to the net argon
coming in to the loop. Thus there is an exact argon balance in the loop and there will be no build up of inerts
as the flowsheet recycle solves.
Results
The synthesis loop solves with a production of 1546 lb mole/hr of 99.66% purity ammonia. The product
compositions are shown in Table 3.
The overall conversion to ammonia is 99% with a reactor conversion per pass of 27%.
The recycle stream rate is 10618 lb mole/hr giving a recycle:feed ratio of 3.2:1. The purge stream is
73 lb mol/hr which is 0.69% of the recycle flowrate.

USE OF THE MODEL IN PROCESS CONTROL
Very clear benefits of using a computer model of a Kellogg Ammonia plant were demonstrated in a paper
published in Hydrocarbon Processing, November 1980. The paper focuses on the design of control strategies
and uses a simulation model to derive the responses of the plant to different settings of various parameters.
The parameters that were examined were:
The ratio of synthesis loop recycle rate to fresh syngas
In many plants the fresh syngas feed to the synthesis loop is limited by front-end restric-
tions such as insufficient synthesis compressor power or absorber capacity.
The ratio of nitrogen to hydrogen in the syngas
At constant syngas make-up rates, ammonia production increased as H/N decreased, but
synthesis compressor loadings increased.
Synthesis loop pressure
Production of ammonia increases with increased loop pressure. The design pressure,
constrained by mechanical considerations, is the limiting factor and the purge system
should be operated the keep the operating pressure just below the design pressure.
The temperature of the synthesizer feed
Production is extremely sensitive to this parameter and an optimum temperature can be
found. The control of this parameter is critical to the profitability of the plant.
Methane content in syngas
Ammonia production decreases with increasing methane. Improved primary reformer
temperature control can alleviate this problem.
The results of these simulations have been put into practice in a number of installations and these have
consistently led to improved productivity and higher conversion efficiency.
