The capability to perform the process design for complex plate exchangers has recently been added to a process simulation program called PROSIM. Three case studies involving the simulation and optimization of cryogenic operations for liquids recovery from gases using complex plate exchangers are presented. Due to their low cost and superior heat transfer capabilities, complex plate exchangers can be very useful in reducing costs and optimizing cryogenic operations UR - http://www.bre.com/technicalpapers/technicalpaper.asp?articlenumber=38 ER -
