A two-stage optimal design procedure is suggested for alkane pyrolysis processes and is applied to propane pyrolysis. The first stage considers only hydrocarbon decomposition, the primary reaction in the process. A mathematical model consisting of an overall stoichiometric, an empirical rate, and a heat-balance and hydrodynamic equation is constructed. This model is analyzed for a varied tube diameter and a fixed propane conversion to optimize the design parameters of the propane pyrolysis reactor. At the second stage, the main reaction is considered together with secondary and tertiary reactions and a complete model taking into account recycling of the unreacted raw material is constructed. The optimum inlet temperature and recycle ratio are determined as a function of the total feed rate. An economic optimality criterion is suggested, and final process optimization is carried out.
