Abstract

Nitrobenzene is a compound derived from benzene and quite fundamental in the petrochemical industry. One of which is in the manufacture of aniline. Aniline has an important role as dyes, synthetic rubber materials, rocket fuels and pharmaceuticals. Nitrobenzene can be synthesized by the nitration reaction of benzene. The purpose of the research is to design synthesis process of nitrobenzene by using Aspen Hysys simulator. The effect of changes in operating condition on nitrobenzene will be investigated. The benefits of the research are to obtain the optimum operating temperature for nitrobenzene production so that the use of utility can be minimized.
