Abstract
Nowadays, with the growing demand for energy and effective utilization of various available sources with the exorable techniques and approaches to maximize the efficiency of energy systems. This work has developed the synthesis of Methyl chloride (MC) from the methane chlorination process using the ASPEN HYSYS simulation tool. A Searchable analysis has been done on thermodynamic derivatives (likely Energy, Exergy) to probation on the entire process. This analysis calculates all process components’ energy loss, destruction and energy, and exergy efficiencies. A heavier energy loss has been found at Reactor (ERV) with 1785.5 kW and exergy destruction of 18.8% share. Heat Exchanger Network (HEN) has energy loss (960.32kW) & exergy destruction (791.29kW). The proposed new retrofit sustainable model recovered the waste heat from the HEN and achieved energy efficiency of 87.6% and exergy efficiency of 87.3% of the total MC process. Four Machine learning models were developed for the reactor (ERV) process to predict exergy destruction. The artificial Neural network (ANN) gave good testing predictions, followed by the Random Forest (RF) with a determination coefficient (R2) of 0.999957 and 0.999981.
期刊介绍:
Energy & Environment is an interdisciplinary journal inviting energy policy analysts, natural scientists and engineers, as well as lawyers and economists to contribute to mutual understanding and learning, believing that better communication between experts will enhance the quality of policy, advance social well-being and help to reduce conflict. The journal encourages dialogue between the social sciences as energy demand and supply are observed and analysed with reference to politics of policy-making and implementation. The rapidly evolving social and environmental impacts of energy supply, transport, production and use at all levels require contribution from many disciplines if policy is to be effective. In particular E & E invite contributions from the study of policy delivery, ultimately more important than policy formation. The geopolitics of energy are also important, as are the impacts of environmental regulations and advancing technologies on national and local politics, and even global energy politics. Energy & Environment is a forum for constructive, professional information sharing, as well as debate across disciplines and professions, including the financial sector. Mathematical articles are outside the scope of Energy & Environment. The broader policy implications of submitted research should be addressed and environmental implications, not just emission quantities, be discussed with reference to scientific assumptions. This applies especially to technical papers based on arguments suggested by other disciplines, funding bodies or directly by policy-makers.
