Integration Optimization of Production and Utility System for Refinery-wide Planning
نویسندگان
چکیده
Traditional optimization of production system and utility system is carried out separately which cannot ensure that the entire refinery system is optimized globally. In this paper, a novel integrated approach is proposed to optimize process production planning and utility system operation simultaneously. A refinery-wide mixed integer nonlinear programming model is proposed and the traditional method and improved integrated method are compared. A real industrial example is conducted to demonstrate the effect of the proposed mathematical model. The results suggest that the integrated approach can provide not only significant benefits but also better energy utilization.

Tendency to optimization in last decades has resulted in creating multi-product manufacturing systems. Production planning in such systems is difficult, because optimal production volume that is calculated must be consistent with limitation of production system. Hence, integration has been proposed to decide about these problems concurrently. Main problem in integration is how we can relate pro...

Integration of production planning and scheduling is a class of problems commonly found in manufacturing industry. This class of problems associated with precedence constraint has been previously modeled and optimized by the authors, in which, it requires a multidimensional optimization at the same time: what to make, how many to make, where to make and the order to make. It is a combinatorial,...
