Introduction
This file describes an Aspen Plus model for the scaling prediction of CO2CaCO3H2O ternary system at 398.15 K, and the scaling mineral CaCO3 is
included in this model. This model consists of a flash block to simulate the
liquid-solid equilibrium for CO2-CaCO3H2O at 398.15 K. The thermophysical
properties are studied intensively, wherever possible, model parameters have
been estimated and validated against experimental data from open literature.
The model includes the following key features:

The unsymmetric electrolyte NRTL method and PC-SAFT equation of state are
used to compute liquid and vapor properties respectively in this model. For
applying this model, the option code for model should be specified as follows:
Model ESPSAFT with 10 as the second option code should be used for
PHIVMX, DHVMX, DGVMX, DSVMX, VVMX. Model ESPSAFT0 with
10 as the second option code should be used for PHIV, DHV, DGV,
DSV, VV. That means the Copolymer PC-SAFT equation of state is
used to calculate the vapor fugacity coefficient, vapor molar enthalpy
departure, molar Gibbs free energy departure, molar entropy
departure, molar volume for both mixture and pure component. The
second option code 10 is implemented to find the true density at the
given condition of T, P, compositions regardless of the specified phase.

Extended Antoine equation is used instead of a steam table for the calculation
of vapor pressure for water, because practice shows that the predictions from
steam tables at high temperatures are not accurate enough. To implement
this change, route PHIL04 should be used for property PHIL.
Because of the low ionization rate of CO2 in water and the minor solubility of
CaCO3, the interactions between species are negligible. So, zero is used for
the NRTL binary parameters between CO2 and H2O. The default values are
used for the NRTL parameters for electrolyte and electrolyte or molecule.
Based on the liquid activity coefficient, the enthalpy of aqueous solution can
be calculated from the following equations:

Criss and Cobble (1964)[12] show that the Cp of ions changes little from
298.15 K to 473.15 K. That means considering the Cp of ions as a constant at
this temperature range is more reasonable than using the existing
specification in Aspen Plus. For this reason, we updated the CPAQ0 for anions
in this work as shown in Table 4.

4 Simulation Approach
Because of the reaction between CO2 and CO3-2, the solubility of CaCO3(s) in
CO2-H2O is much greater than that in water at the same conditions. As there
are no industrial or pilot plant data available for barite precipitation
processes, we use the equilibrium model (flash calculations) to simulate the
scaling potential of the stable minerals. The scaling potential is estimated with
solubility index of a salt, and the solubility index can be expressed as:

We can see from Tables 7 and 8 that about 0.376 kmol/h CO2 goes to the
vapor phase, which means the solution is saturated with CO2. And the
solubility of CaCO3(s) increases from 1.60E-04 molal to 3.7E-03 molal after
CO2 is bubbled into the solution. The results are consistent with the
experimental data[15].
The SOLINDEX in Table 8 shows that the streams CACO3IN and LIQUIOUT are
saturated with CaCO3(s).
