General Description

The PHREEQC solver is called to determine the state of a SysCAD stream. The composition, temperature and pressure of the 'Feed' stream are based on the feed to the unit. The unit will then determine the equilibrium conditions of the resulting stream.

The PHREEQC Flash Tank is used to 'flash' a feed stream to produce a liquid and vapour product at a set pressure or temperature.
There are two operational modes for the PHREEQC Flash Tank: (1) as a stand-alone unit; or (2) as part of a Flash Train. The user sets the operational mode of the Flash Tank. However, if the user sets the mode as Flash Train and the Flash Tank is NOT connected to any Flash Train aware destination unit, the model will go to an error state.
The PHREEQC Flash Tank model may be used as a Crystallizer. Vapour is flashed off and the remaining solution is then supersaturated with the required species. This species then precipitates out as the crystal product.

Notes

The user MUST have added and configured a PHREEQC Model Configuration unit in the SysCAD project before this unit can function.
The user MUST have installed a version of PHREEQC on their computer to make use of the PHREEQC functionality in SysCAD. Please see https://www.usgs.gov/software/phreeqc-version-3 for more information.

Diagram

The diagram shows a drawing of the PHREEQC Flash Tank unit, with Feed, Product and Vapour streams. When the user inserts the PHREEQC Reactor unit into a flowsheet, a different graphics symbol can be selected from a pull down menu. The streams may be connected to any area of the drawing without affecting the actual connection point as SysCAD ignores the physical position of the connection.

Inputs and Outputs

Label	Required / Optional	Input / Output	Number of Connections		Description
Label	Required / Optional	Input / Output	Min	Max	Description
Feed	1 Required	Input	1	10	The feed to the Flash Tank.
Product	Required	Output	1	1	Product stream.
Vent	Required	Output	1	1	Vent Stream (Vapour Only).

The PHREEQC Flash Tank can be incorporated into a SysCAD flowsheet, it can be connected with SysCAD inlet and outlet streams.

Behaviour when Model is OFF

If the user disables the unit, by un-ticking the On tick box, then the following actions occur:

All material in streams connected to the 'Feed' will flow straight out of the 'Product' outlet, with no change in phase;
No sub-models will be called.

So basically, the unit will be 'bypassed' without the user having to change any connections.

Model Theory

The PHREEQC Flash Tank Model uses the PHREEQC algorithms and data to determine the status of the aqueous solution.

Mapping of the SysCAD to PHREEQC streams is done via Species Mapping.

The PHREEQC Flash Tank can be incorporated into a SysCAD flowsheet, it can be connected with SysCAD inlet and outlet streams.

User connects the PHREEQC Flash Tank with SysCAD input streams,
The SysCAD feed stream(s) using SysCAD species is converted into PHREEQC "Input" using PHREEQC Species. The species mapping is defined in the corresponding PHREEQC Model Configuration unit model.
The PHREEQC Flash Tank calls the PHREEQC algorithms to determine the status of the mixture using the converted PHREEQC "input" data.
The PHREEQC results are displayed in the "output" tab using PHREEQC species.
The results are converted back into SysCAD species. Please see Species Mapping for more information.

NOTES:

The Input, Output and Diff tab pages are displayed using PHREEQC species, as defined in the PHREEQC database file (.dat)} specified in the corresponding PHREEQC Model Configuration unit model.
The species used in the SysCAD project are shown on the optional Sp pages, shown as part of the QFeed, QBypass, QUnmapped, QRxnProdBypass and QProd pages.
The calculations performed are similar to using PHREEQC directly, except the contents of the SysCAD stream are mapped to equivalent PHREEQC species using the settings defined in the PHREEQC Model Configuration unit model. Please see https://www.usgs.gov/software/phreeqc-version-3 for more information.

Calculation of Osmotic Pressure

PHREEQC calculates the activity of water, which is then used to calculate the osmotic pressure by the Van't Hoff formula. The Van't Hoff formula is:

[math]\displaystyle{ \Pi=-\frac{RT}{\overline{V}}ln(a_w) }[/math]

where [math]\displaystyle{ \Pi }[/math] is the osmotic pressure, [math]\displaystyle{ \overline{V} }[/math] is the partial molar volume of water (ideal), and [math]\displaystyle{ a_w }[/math] is the activity of water (mole fraction basis).

This model uses the VLE model of SysCAD, not PHREEQC, for calculating the vapour. The liquid fraction of the stream is fed to PHREEQC to determine the ionic solution properties, which are then used in an iterative manner to calculate the BPE, and ultimately, the temperature, pressure, amount of vapour generated, etc. Thus PHREEQC is used for calculating the liquid and solid fractions of the stream, and SysCAD VLE is used to calculate the vapour.
The resulting mixture is then separated into vapour and product streams.

WorkFlow

The suggested workflow for configuring the model is:

Make sure the project contains at least one of the PHREEQC Model Configuration model, and the model is loaded with the correct PHREEQC database you would like to use for the PHREEQC Flash Tank model.
On the PHREEQCFlashTank tab page, configure the model - methods, pressures, etc.
On the TCE tab page, select the correct ChemModel (to match step 1) (Note: In older builds, this selection was made on the PHREEQCFlashTank tab page).
Select other TCE options (Bypass, CFE, etc.)
Perform an equilibrium calculation by pressing Solve in SysCAD.
The Results are displayed in the PHREEQCResults and Output tabs.
Check and fix any species mapping issues. (PHREEQC resulting species may change if the operating conditions change, so it is likely a change of temperature or feed composition will result in different PHREEQC species.)
