  7. Abstract:
  8. The development of computers and their related software packages provided engineers with the ability to simulate complex chemical processes. These simulations were the stepping stone for in-depth knowledge of the processes and also a prerequisite for the chemical process optimizations. From then, realistic simulation and optimization were always a primary concern for chemical engineers. To address this concern, they go beyond the one-dimensional design approach toward the two-dimensional design-operation systems, and the design-control interaction of the chemical processes afterward. Moreover, optimizing chemical processes from the aspect of energy and water, separately, gained lots of attention through years of research. With the increasing capability of computer systems, a combination of the mentioned aspects emerged in the field, named water-energy nexus optimization. This optimization approach gained increasing attention mostly in steady-state design and simulations. The goal of this project is to develop a dynamic digital twin simulation for methanol production using natural gas. This simulation involves most of the required details of the realistic system that affects the simulation most. The involved details provide the literature with a simulation that is suitable for water-energy nexus dynamic optimization
