Steady operation of a petrochemical company and its installations as well as its efficiency depends in many respects on reliable and optimal performance of the technological equipment. It is common that technological equipment complexes often do not operate in optimal mode even if they are controlled by modern automatic control systems. If for some reason, the equipment comes to a halt, even the best technologies and control systems cannot compensate for the economic costs and losses caused due to downtime of the equipment. The solution to this problem is to construct computer models that allow one to encompass the technological equipment from a single standpoint and conduct necessary experiments without recourse to the existing equipment. The calculation and comparison of the results of computer modeling of the process of separation of hydrocarbon mixtures are based on real components and pseudocomponents using CHEMCAD software package. The computer model of the fractionating block was constructed by modeling a section of the technological scheme of liquid fuel production of the vacuum gas oil hydrocracking plant.
