Title: BOOK on Distillation Control
Post by: ATC15 on March 05, 2018, 03:32:39 PM

Hi guys,

I'm currently doing a detailed unit design of a distillation column for my university project. I've just finished identifying my control loops to counter disturbances. But now I need to consider safety like i) basic controls alarms and supervision, to ii) critical alarms, supervision and manual intervention, iii) automatic action: safety interlock system (SIS), or emergency shutdown (ESD), iv) physical protection e.g. a relief valve.

I can't find a guide or book that helps me identify what to put where to put and why. If you have any resources or a book to recommend please let me know!

thanks!
