 The Success of Researchers at Ferdowsi University of Mashhad in Collaboration with Researchers at the University of Tehran in Optimizing and Increasing the Production of Marjan Petrochemical

According to the contract between Ferdowsi University of Mashhad (FUM) and Marjan Petrochemical Company, optimization and modification of the production process of this petrochemical in 5 phases and the form of cooperation between the Department of Chemical Engineering of FUM (Process Department) and the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, University of Tehran (CFD Department) are underway and its three phases have been completed so far. 


According to Dr. Mehdi Panahi, a member of the Faculty of Chemical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering of FUM, and the executor of this project, in the second phase of the project, the current operating conditions of the petrochemical optimized by a complete simulation of the petrochemical process. and its compliance with the operational data was done. 


After ensuring the accuracy of the simulation, the process optimization was done using mathematical algorithms, the results of which were provided to Marjan Petrochemical Co. After technical meetings, the first part of the optimization results was implemented in the mentioned petrochemical, which in the past two months and with the stabilization of the production process, led to an increase in daily production of 35 tons of methanol
