Considering the problem of the energy consumption in the gas fractionation unit, PROII process simulation software is used to calculate the gas fractionation unit and to analyze the effect of process parameters. On the premise of ensuring product quality, these parameters can reduce energy consumption, improve economic benefit.

Response Surface Method involving central composite design is employed to determine the optimal configuration of nine factors for maximizing the profit of a Condensate Fractionation Unit. When compared with the results from the base case and Taguchi method, the result from RSM shows higher profits by 33.1% and 1.16%, respectively. A further benefit of 0.64% is noticed when three insignificant factors were removed from the nine-factor experiment due to interactions between factors.

Gas Plant Unit in company X engaged in energy in Balikpapan has a design capacity of 560 tons/day. This unit serves to produce propane gas (C3H8) and butane (C4H10) to become LPG products. The Deethanizer column is a Light End fractionation unit that separates Ethane compounds from Propane and Butane at operating temperature resulting in LPG products that meet the specifications. The researcher's goal is to obtain the actual mass balance calculation and the flow rate of the process—the method used from retrieving data on operating conditions directly to the industry and performing calculations. The Deetanizer column is composed of 40 sieve trays, the entry feed of the 20th tray operates at the mass flow rate of the Deethanizer column feed of 5949,184 kg/hour, the flow rate of LPG products is 3428,334 kg/hour, and the mass flow rate of gas overhead is 150,186 kg/hour so that there is an actual % loss of 39,84%, this is because this unit should be time to be repaired. However, this does not affect the products produced, which can be seen from laboratory tests on LPG product samples.ABSTRAKGas Plant Unit diperusahaan X yang bergerak dibidang energi di Balikpapan mempunyai kapasitas desain 560 ton/hari. Unit ini berfungsi untuk memproduksi gas propane (C3H8) dan butana (C4H10) sehingga menjadi produk LPG. Kolom Deethanizer adalah unit fraksinasi Light Ends yang berfungsi untuk memisahkan senyawa Ethana dari Propana dan Butana dengan proses destilasi bertekananan sehingga menghasilkan produk LPG yang memenuhi spesifikasi. Tujuan peneliti untuk mendapatkan perhitungan neraca massa aktual serta laju alir proses. Metode yang digunakan dari pengambilan data kondisi operasi langsung ke industri serta melakukan perhitungan. Kolom Deetanizer tersusun dari 40 buah sieve tray, umpan masuk dari tray ke-20, beroperasi pada laju alir massa umpan kolom Deethanizer sebesar 5949,184 kg/jam, laju alir produk LPG sebesar 3428,334 kg/jam dan laju alir massa overhead gas sebesar 150,186 kg/jam sehingga diperoleh % yield aktual 57.62 dan % losses aktual sebesar 39,84%, hal ini disebabkan karena unit ini seharusnya sudah waktunya untuk di perbaiki. Namun hal ini tidak berpengaruh terhadap produk yang dihasilkan, hal ini dapat dilihat dari hasil uji Laboratorium mengenai Sampel Produk LPG.
