I need a complete DWSIM simulation that focuses on reducing the overall energy consumption of an MEA absorption–stripping system designed for post-combustion CO₂ capture from natural-gas flue gas. The emphasis is firmly on energy use—how we can cut the reboiler duty, lower auxiliary electricity demand, and generally make the flowsheet leaner without sacrificing capture performance. What I already have • Process description, feed compositions, and target CO₂ removal. • Basic thermodynamic and kinetics data for 30 wt % MEA. What I expect from you 1. Build or refine the full flowsheet in DWSIM (latest stable release). 2. Set up relevant optimisers and sensitivity analyses to pinpoint operating conditions that minimise total energy draw. 3. Supply the native .dwxmz file plus a concise technical memo (2–3 pages) explaining key assumptions, optimisation steps, and final energy figures. 4. Highlight at least two actionable design or operating tweaks that drive the biggest savings. Acceptance criteria • Mass and energy balances close within ±1 %. • CO₂ capture ≥90 % maintained in optimised case. • At least 10 % reduction in total energy consumption versus my baseline. If you have previous DWSIM work on solvent-based capture or similar optimisation studies, please mention it when you respond.

Hello, We can support this DWSIM-based MEA CO₂ capture optimization project with a strong focus on thermodynamically consistent simulation and energy minimization strategies. We have experience working with solvent-based absorption–stripping systems, including MEA and similar amine systems for post-combustion capture. We will build or refine the full DWSIM flowsheet using 30 wt% MEA with validated thermodynamic packages, ensuring correct representation of absorber, stripper, heat exchangers, pumps, and utilities. Once the baseline is stable and mass/energy balances are validated, we will run sensitivity analysis and optimization routines targeting reboiler duty, solvent circulation rate, and heat integration opportunities. The optimization will focus on reducing total energy consumption while maintaining ≥90% CO₂ capture efficiency. We will identify operating windows (lean/rich loading, stripper pressure, reflux ratio, solvent flowrate) and evaluate heat integration improvements to reduce steam demand and auxiliary loads. The final output will include the .dwxmz file and a concise technical memo summarizing assumptions, optimization path, and achieved energy reduction, along with key actionable improvements. Q1: Is your baseline simulation already converged in DWSIM, or should we rebuild the entire flowsheet from scratch? Q2: Do you want the optimization to prioritize minimum reboiler duty only, or total equivalent energy including pumps and cooling? Thanks, Asif
