چکیده

This paper addresses the problem of integrating in a single model operational optimization and cyclic scheduling of continuous plants. Considered are multiproduct, multistage plants with finite intermediate storage capacity (FIS). A combined optimization approach introduces synergic effects for more effective scheduling and plant operation (Alle and Pinto, 2001a,b). The representation proposed for this problem results in an MINLP model with a nonconvex feasible region and nonconvex objective function. In order to deal with nonconvexity, a spatial branch-and-bound global optimization algorithm is applied. Results show that the global approach is effectively able to yield more profitable solutions than those obtained by local optimization methods.

Cyclic short-term scheduling of multiproduct batch plants using continuous-time representation

The idea of cyclic scheduling is commonly utilized to address short-term scheduling problems for multiproduct batch plants under the assumption of relatively stable operations and product demands. It requires the determination of optimal cyclic schedule, thus greatly reducing the size of the overall scheduling problems with large time horizon. In this paper a new cyclic scheduling approach is p...

Simultaneous Cyclic Scheduling and Control of a Multiproduct CSTR Reactor

In this work we propose a scheduling and control formulation for simultaneously addressing scheduling and control problems by explicitly incorporating process dynamics in the form of system constraints that ought to be met. The formulation takes into account the interactions between such problems and is able to cope with nonlinearities embedded into the processing system. The simultaneous sched...
