Distillation is still one of the most important operations in process engineering. In this research,
ternary separation (Propane, Butane and Pentane) in distillation system was simulated to calculate
the minimum total annual cost (TAC). Genetic algorithm was implemented to determine a number
of significant variables. The effect of heat integration on direct arrangement, indirect arrangement
and preferactionator arrangement was studied. The results show that the prefractionator
arrangement (with heat integration) posses the best performance according to the minimum
TAC.This system decreased the TAC to 45.60% in comparison with the direct arrangement
(Without integration).
