Requirements For Aspirin Pilot Plant Production
System requirements :
- Aspirin Pilot Plant shall be able to produce the aspirin.
- The control panel shall be able to control all the pumps, valves, mixers and read the data of the sensors (Temperature-pressure).
Physical requirements :
- The pipes shall be able to withstand the temperatures and pressures that exist at the points.
- Temperature that shall be withstood: 80 degrees celsius.
- Pressure that shall be withstood: 2 bar.
- The tanks shall be able to withstand the Temperatures exchanges, pressures and mechanical forces that exist at the points.
- Temperature that shall be withstood: 80+ degrees celsius.
- Pressure that shall be withstood: 2 bar.
-mechanical force: mixer movements and rotation.
Chemical requirements :
- The Tanks system shall be able to insulate the chemical reagents.
- The Tanks system shall be able to withstand the corrosion with H2SO4 and acetic acid.
- The pipe system used shall be able to withstand the corrosion with H2SO4 and acetic acid.
- The valves shall be able to withstand the corrosion with H2SO4 and acetic acid.
Mechanical requirements :
- The Tank system shall be made of Stainless Steel 316.
- The Tank system shall be able to close the system completely.
- The pipes shall be made of stainless steel 316.
- The pipes shall be able to resist the pressure without let gas exit through.
- The valves shall be made of stainless steel 316.
- The valves shall be able to close completely.
- The valves shall be able to open or close with independent pressure.
- The aspirin pilot plant shall be designed acccording to the mechanical design.
Safety requirements :
- The system shall be enclosed completely to ensure no toxic gas and to avoid contact with the burns from concentrated acid (H2SO4).
- The system shall be enclosed during the sterilization step to avoid the burns form hot vapor used to sterilization.
