Research Activities

1. Thermodynamic Modelling and process simulation

Key Words : Thermodynamics, electrolyte solutions, energy, refrigerants, biofuels, hydrates, polymers, phase equilibria, equations of state (cubic and non cubic), SAFT,

COSMO-RS and COSMO-SAC, molecular simulation, reactive systems, ...

Our research projects deal with the modeling and the molecular simulations of the physical properties and phase equilibria of complex mixtures such as refrigerants, polymer systems and electrolyte solutions. Thermodynamics is essential in chemical engineering, for the design and optimization of processes. The study of phase equilibria is crucial for the optimization of separation units such as distillation columns.

Molecular simulation and fluid theories are now widely used to predict the physical properties of mixtures (density, vapor pressure, viscosity, surface tension, phase equilibria, ...). These predictive approaches can very useful when experimental measurements are costly or difficult, and they enable to understand the behavior of fluids are the molecular level.

We have strong links with the PROSIM company that develops proces simulation softwares, and some of our thermodynamic models were implemented into PROSIM software

2. Phase Equilibrium Measurements

We perform different kinds of phase equilibrium measurements at the lab. We have high pressure static apparatus for phase equilibria, as well as low pressure equipment for measurements of activity coefficients

Using our own thermodynamic models for process simulation

Thanks to the CAPE-OPEN interface and the Simulis thermodynamics ® software (prosim), we are able to use our models for the simulation of chemical processes. Some examples are the simulation of the production process of acrylic acid, and the simulation of energetic systems such as air conditioners, heat pumps, and organic Rankine cycles. This interface is particularly useful to simulate processes that involve molecules that do not exist in the software database, or to use a specific thermodynamic model that is not included into the software. All our codes can be used within the interface and can be run in most process simulation softwares compatible with the CAPE-OPEN interface.
