In the present work a Non-Linear Model Predictive Control (NLMPC) procedure for in-silico ethanol production maximization will be presented for a fed-batch process, configuration which is widespread found in the industrial scope, using an Genetic Algorithm (GA) routine. The dynamic optimization problem was subdivided in a series of sequential intervals for optimization, and the influence of the number...
The industries often require heat exchanger network (HEN) that supports variations in the streams thermal capacity and temperatures. Therefore, the HEN project must consider the concepts of flexibility, controllability and resiliency. This paper presents a review of the case study 12S.2 proposed by Seider et al. (2009)for analysis of operability using the RGA and DC index. The results found are the...
In recent times, the interaction between process design and control has become the focus of research and development, because not always the best process design features the best dynamic performance, with implications in the controllability of the plant. It is then proposed a simultaneous approach of economic goals and controllability in the early stages of the project design. Recent studies have...
