This work introduces a strategy for the optimal design of distillation systems based on continuous optimization. The approach is similar to the one proposed earlier by [Lang, Y. -D., & Biegler, L. T. (2002). A distributed stream method for tray optimization. AIChE Journal, 48, 582], avoiding the need of solving extremely large and non-linear discrete optimization problems. When used with complex distillation un...
This paper addresses the optimization of batch polymerization systems, using a feasible path approach, with roots on Model Predictive Control (MPC) theory. The approach allows the reuse of many concepts previously developed for nonlinear MPC of continuous plants. It also provides an efficient and well-integrated methodology for the optimal supervision of discontinuous chemical processes. The application of this...
