REPRO: Supporting Flowsheet Design by Case-Based Retrieval
نویسندگان
چکیده
Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) paradigm is very close to the designer behavior during the conceptual design, and seems to be a fruitable computer aided-design approach if a library of design cases is available. The goal of this paper is to presents the general framework of a case-based retrieval system: REPRO, that supports chemical process design. The crucial problems like the case representation and structural similarity measure are widely described. The presented experimental results and the expert evaluation shows usefulness of the described system in real world problems. The papers ends with discussion concerning research problems and future work.

Automated Support for Developing Retrieve-and-Propose Systems
We have studied the retrieve-and-propose problem solving method, a specialization of the general case-based reasoning method, in terms of its tasks in the context of fault-recovery domains. We have analyzed the case retrieval and learning tasks that are primarily used in the retrieveand-propose method, decomposed them into appropriate subtasks, associated decisions for selecting each subtask, a...

متن کاملDesign of Optimal Process Flowsheet for Fractional Crystallization Separation Process
A procedure is presented that synthesizes fractional crystallization separation processes to obtain pure solids from multi-component solutions. The method includes a procedure to generate a network flow model to identify alternative process designs for fractional crystallization. The main advantage of this systematic procedure with respect to other reported procedures is using non-equilibri...

A methodology for multi-level conceptual design and analysis of crystallization-based separation processes involving electrolyte systems is presented. The methodology consists of three main parts: thermodynamic part (level 1), flowsheet design/analysis part (level 2) and flowsheet validation (simulation) part (level 3). In this paper, the integration of the thermodynamic and design/analysis par...
متن کاملSystematic Sustainable Process Design and Analysis of Biodiesel Processes
Biodiesel is a promising fuel alternative compared to traditional diesel obtained from conventional sources such as fossil fuel. Many flowsheet alternatives exist for the production of biodiesel and therefore it is necessary to evaluate these alternatives using defined criteria and also from process intensification opportunities. This work focuses on three main aspects that have been incorporat...
