Abstract
The objective of this work was to model, the gasoline stabilization column to get a better use of energy, increased yield and reduced costs of operation. The calculation of the stabilization column was performed by using Soave-Redlich-Kong (SRK) thermodynamic model with pseudo-component approach. The results given by this model was compared with experimental data obtained from functioning stabilization column of petroleum refinery and conclusions about the accuracy of the models studied are drawn. Using SRK model, a technical feasibility study was followed to run the stabilization column at an optimum pressure. The results allowed us to highlight the effect of pressure on the separation of products, recommending the optimal pressure for optimizing the energy consumption of reboiler.
