Production continuity is an important process characteristic which receives significant attentions in actual refinery process. However, there hasn't been a sufficient and comprehensive expression of production continuity in literatures of refinery scheduling. The core of this paper is to deal with the scheduling optimization problem of refinery operations based on production continuity. The quantitative...
In continuous production process, there are many complex equipments and special requirements such as continuity and stability, which are very difficult to be presented in classical MINLP formulations. So the production scheduling for continuous process is more difficult than that for discrete process or batch process. In continuous process, experience rules usually play very important roles. But it...
Planning and scheduling of the flow of crude oil are very important problems in petroleum refineries. Since they emphasize on different apartment of plant, there are more optimized space in scheduling layer after plan optimization. The core of this article is to treat the scheduling problem when transitions occur by feedstock from tanks to crude distillation units. A scheduling model is built as the...
Uncertain phenomenon is prevalent in batch processes, which makes it very difficult to obtain a satisfied schedule for the decision maker with usual deterministic model. In order to improve the system performance in the face of uncertainty, a novel robust scheduling method based on the idea of robust optimization with recourse is proposed. The corn of this method is to find the equilibrium of feasibility...
