Based on the concept of exergy, an improved calculation of the minimum separation power of product （MSPP） in the petroleum distillation process is provided in this article. The calculation of MSPP can be derived from the concept of exergy. The related mathematical models are established. Finally, application of this method to a case study is given, and the results are compared with the ones using mass as an allocation parameter.展开更多
