In this contribution, a different pressure thermally coupled extractive distillation process has been applied on the separation of propylene and propane with aqueous acetonitrile (ACN) solution as entrainer. The novel distillation pro-cess integration is the combination of different pressure thermally coupled distillation (DPTCD) and extractive distillation (ED). Both the new process and the conventional process have been simulated in Aspen Plus. Sensitivity analysis has been conducted to select an appropriate compression ratio and other operating parameters based on the priority that the propylene product purity is 99.2 wt % and less energy consumption. The influence of the proposed distillation column on energetic and economic aspects is evaluated through intensive comparison against the conventional stand-alone column, and better performance is achieved with up to 46.02% energy saving and close to 9.7% saving in total annual cost (TAC).

In the competition among organization on the global market, no organization will tolerate losses. Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) overall is a new process in which the efficiency of a system is calculated and complicated manufacturing issues are truly simplified to simple and intuitive knowledge delivery. It thinks about the exceptionally important measures of productivity. An endeavour has been done to measure and analyse existing Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) at company Kirino in hope to reduce unplanned downtime losses on equipment failure and tooling damage to maximize the productivity. The methods used to analyse these various causes were analysis tools and Intelligence Systems. After knowing the causes of various activities that leads to high rates of defects, then recommendations for improvements that could be used by company Kirino were ready to be made using intelligent system as a medium of solution
