Development of an ASPEN PLUS Physical Property Database for Biofuels Components

Research output: NREL › Technical Report

Abstract

Physical property data for many key components used to simulate ethanol from biomass are not available in the standard ASPEN PLUS property databases. Therefore, we must evaluate the literature, estimate properties, and determine a set of consistent physical properties for all components of interest. The components must then be entered into an in-house NREL ASPEN PLUS database so they can becalled on without being retyped into each specific simulation.
