Boundary control for an industrial under-actuated tubular chemical reactor
Several control strategies are presented and studied for an industrial under-actuated tubular chemical reactor. This work presents a case-study of the performance of a decentralized versus centralized control strategy. The tubular reactor under consideration is characterized by nonlinear kinetic laws, and it has some structural constraints on the location of the heat exchangers and of the senso...
متن کاملMulti-objective Design Optimization of an Industrial Ldpe Tubular Reactor Using Jumping Gene Adaptations of Nsga and Constraint Handling Principle
Multi-objective optimization of an industrial low-density polyethylene (LDPE) tubular reactor is carried out at design stage with the following objectives: maximization of monomer conversion and minimization of normalized side products (methyl, vinyl, and vinylidene groups), both at the reactor end, with end-point constraint on number-average molecular weight (Mn,f) in the product. An inequalit...
متن کاملEquilibrium Profiles of Tubular Reactor Nonlinear Models
The multiplicity of the equilibrium profiles is analyzed for axial dispersion nonisothermal tubular reactors described by Arrhenius type nonlinear models. It is reported that there is at least one steady state among the physically feasible states for such models. Moreover physically meaninful conditions which ensure the multiplicity of equilibrium profiles are given.
متن کاملOptimisation of Grade Transitions in an Industrial Gas-phase Olefin Polymerization Fluidized Bed Reactor via Nco Tracking
Gas-phase olefin polymerization fluidized-bed reactors are complex processes that are characterized by large time constants and slow transitions. Optimal grade changes can be computed off-line on the basis of a detailed process model and applied to the process in an open-loop mode. However, the presence of uncertainties in the form of process-model mismatch and disturbances make this approach c...
متن کاملModeling and Simulation of Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) High Pressure Tubular Reactor
Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) is produced by free radical polymerization. Industrially, LDPE polymerization process is usually carried out in a continuous mode (tubular or autoclave reactors) at high pressures (1300-3400 atm) and temperatures (50-340 0 C). LDPE exhibits a number of desirable properties, including high tensile strength, flexibility, high impact resistance, low crystallinity, l...
