Representative Sampling for Elaboration of the Alumina Manufacturing Process (Theory and Practice )
Sampling of any geological formation needs comprehensive knowledge of the rock genesis, through the dia- and epigenetic processes (secondary alterations) up to the physical properties and the chemical and mineralogical composition of the rock. Well established theoretical knowledge should be complemented by practical experience. Besides the geological exploration of a raw material, its represen...
متن کاملAI planning: solutions for real world problems
This paper argues that AI planning is a technology ripe for use on real world problems as shown by a number of current applications. An introduction is given to AI planning, and then followed by a consideration in detail of the successful application of this technology to generating operating procedures for chemical plants. A description is given of the methodology for developing planning domai...
متن کاملAI Planning in a Chemical Plant Domain
This paper discusses the issues involved in applying a generic AI planner to the problem of generating plant operating procedures for chemical process plant. It considers the problem of providing the correct planning facilities, concentrating on dealing with flow of chemicals, and proposes the use and integration of a special purpose planner for valve sequencing. It goes on to consider the know...
متن کاملAmmonia Plant Analysis
The efficient operation of existing plants in the process industry requires their analysis through simulation together with power and heat integration by retrofitting. Pinch Analysis (PA) is a classical procedure to achieve this goal. Yet, a further integration can be obtained reducing the entropy generated in the chemical processes. Ammonia, important as raw material in many process industries...
متن کاملA Decision Tree for Technology Selection of Nitrogen Production Plants
Nitrogen is produced mainly from its most abundant source, the air, using three processes: membrane, pressure swing adsorption (PSA) and cryogenic. The most common method for evaluating a process is using the selection diagrams based on feasibility studies. Since the selection diagrams are presented by different companies, they are biased, and provide unsimilar and even controversial results. I...
