Description

Abstract: This project focuses on utilizing DWSIM to treat wastewater from the Fisher Tropsch Process. A well-known technique for transforming synthesis gas, a combination of carbon monoxide and hydrogen, into liquid hydrocarbons is the Fischer-Tropsch process. However, this procedure creates wastewater, which if not adequately treated, includes a variety of chemicals that can be detrimental to aquatic life. To get rid of these contaminants and satisfy regulatory standards, the Fischer-Tropsch process requires water treatment. The most often employed therapeutic modalities are physical, pharmacological, and biological therapies. In order to maintain the Fischer-Tropsch process' sustainability and environmental friendliness, efficient and effective water treatment is essential. The Fischer-Tropsch process can continue to be an effective way to make liquid hydrocarbons while minimizing its negative effects on aquatic habitats with the right water treatment. As a result, the goal of this research is to examine the treatment process, determine the chemical oxygen demand (COD) level of Fischer Tropsch water obtained by distillation, reduce its concentration, and prepare the water for neutralization.
