Hello Aalluu.

 

Do you have any simulator?

I am selecting 'Electric-NRTL-RK' model in Aspenplus.

But it is difficult to set about component.

Thus, You need to find manual of electrolyte model in Simulator.

Aalluu,

 

Following links shall provide some information regarding which PP may be used.

You may google to find out why a certain PP provides better results than other.

 

I tried using UNIQUAC for your system. HYSYS message window  stated UNIQUAC doesn't have BIP's for a few components.

When I selected PR, it says it's not recommended for a few components.

PRSV did not indicate any error.

 

I would recommend you study this topic further through literature. It will take time, but it is worth it.

 

You may also contact AspenSupport team to provide you with ready-made answer. :)

 

Most people I know in this business (including myself) trust Hysys results, only if the results match with some reference system.

 

All the best.

 

Regards.

 

Ajay
