Optimal operation of reactive simulated moving bed and Varicol systems
In this article, the performance of a reactive Simulated Moving Bed (SMB) and its modification, the more flexible Varicol process, is improved for the synthesis of methyl acetate (MeOAc) ester by multi-objective optimization using Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGA). The Varicol process is based on a non-synchronous shift of the inlet and outlet ports instead of the synchronous one u...
متن کاملOptimal operating mode for enantioseparation of SB-553261 racemate based on simulated moving bed technology.
The performance of the simulated moving bed (SMB) technology and its modification, the Varicol process, was optimized using an experimentally verified model for the enantioseparation of SB-553261 racemate. Single and multiobjective optimizations have been carried out for both existing as well as design stage and their efficiencies were compared. The optimization problem involves a relatively la...
متن کاملApplication of Multi-Objective Optimization in the Design of SMB in Chemical Process Industry
A new optimization and design strategy, multi-objective optimization, is applied to improve the performance of Simulated Moving Bed (SMB) and its modification, the Varicol systems with or without reactions. The capabilities of the new approach are illustrated considering three different applications of SMB (and Varicol process), namely, chiral drug separation, production of high concentrated fr...
متن کاملEfficient Moving Horizon State and Parameter Estimation for the Varicol SMB Process
In this paper, a moving horizon state and parameter estimation (MHE) scheme for the Varicol process is presented. The Varicol process is an extension of the Simulated Moving Bed (SMB) process that realizes non-integer column distributions over the separation zones by an asynchronous switching of the inlet and outlet ports (the ports are shifted individually). These additional degrees of freedom...
متن کاملOptimization of simulated moving bed (SMB) chromatography: a multi-level optimization procedure
This paper presents a multi-level optimization strategy to obtain optimum operating conditions (four flowrates and cycle time) of nonlinear simulated moving bed chromatography. The multi-level optimization procedure (MLOP) approaches systematically from initialization to optimization with two objective functions (productivity and desorbent consumption), employing the standing wave analysis, the...
