This book was released on 2013-06-10 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of this work is to propose a multiperiod mixed-integer linear programming model for the design and production planning of multistage multiproduct batch plants integrating, simultaneously, scheduling decisions. The time horizon consists of several periods in which deterministic variations due to seasonal or market fluctuations like prices, products demand limits, costs, and raw materials availability, are taken into account. The plant operates using production campaigns along each time period. The objective function maximizes the net present value considering incomes from product sales and, investment, resources, inventories, operation, waste disposal and late delivery penalties costs. The proposed model allows not only finding the optimal plant structure (unit sizes and its duplication in parallel in each stage), but also the production planning in every time period as well as number and optimal sequence of batches in each campaign.

Book excerpt: Energy optimization and the optimization of water use have mainly been treated as separate problems in literature. The batch production schedules resulting from each of these formulations do not guarantee that the plant is operated optimally. Presented in this contribution is a formulation that addresses the optimization of both water and energy, while simultaneously optimizing the batch process schedule. The scheduling framework used in this study is based on the formulation by . This formulation has been shown to result in a significant reduction of computational time, an improvement of the objective function and leads to fewer time points. The objective is to improve the profitability of the plant by minimizing wastewater generation and utility usage. From a case study it was found that through only applying water integration the cost is reduced by 11.6%, by applying only energy integration the cost is reduced by 29.1% and by applying both energy and water integration the cost is reduced by 34.6%. This indicates that optimising water and energy integration in the same scheduling framework can reduce the operating cost and environmental impact significantly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computer aided process engineering (CAPE) tools have been very successfully used in process design and product engineering for a long time. In particular, simulation and modelling tools have enabled engineers to analyse and understand the behaviour of selected processes prior to building actual plants. The aim of design or retrofit of chemical processes is to produce profitably products that satisfy the societal needs, ensuring safe and reliable operation of each process, as well as minimising any effects on the environment. This involves the conceptual design or retrofit of plants and processes, novel manufacturing approaches, process/control system design interactions and operability, manufacturability, environmental and safety issues. Backed by current studies, this 2-volume set gives a comprehensive survey of the various approaches and latest developments on the use of CAPE in the process industry. An invaluable reference to the scientific and industrial community in the field of computer aided process and product engineering.

Download or read book Multiproduct Plants written by Joachim Rauch and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2006-03-06 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the chemical industry, just in time delivery and ever more efficient processes are prime requisites for competitiveness. High end products require a wide product diversity resulting in lower quantities of each single product. The answer to the problem are multiproduct plants designed to meet changing requirements. Already at design stage, different potential requirements are taken into consideration allowing technical equipment to be installed according to the desired product. Reconfiguration can be achieved quickly through exchange of readily available components without costly refitting ot the entire plant. This is the first comprehensive source of information on this modern topic, treating the different concepts known for multiproduct plants, their technical realization, possible uses for the production of chemicals, the choice of the construction materials, as well as safety considerations.
Download or read book Computer Aided Process Planning CAPP written by Architecture Technology Architecture Technology Corpor and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2016-07-29 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Please note this is a Short Discount publication. Process planning involves creating detailed plans of the manufacturing steps and equipment necessary to produce a finished part. Using the variant method, CAPP groups families of parts by a structured classification and coding plan. This report summarizes the state–of–the–art and future trends in the area of CAPP. The computer is a vital part of the process planning function, which includes two different approaches. One is called the variant (similar part) method of process planning and the other is generative (expert system–based). Both will produce similar process plans. Most computer applications, however, are of the variant type, because the software is easier to develop and new process plans are based on previous ones.

This book was released on 2013-06-10 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work presents a novel, efficient and expressive Constraint Programming (CP) approach to the short-term scheduling problem of multistage batch plants. The CP model accounts for many features found in industrial settings and allows modeling operational policies that group batches of the same product into campaigns. Product campaigns simplify the plant operation and allow reducing scrap and changeover times. The formulation has been extensively tested with various examples, including large-scale ones, and different objective functions. Comparisons with results reported in recent contributions are also presented and discussed.

Specifically, these case studies include: • the production planning of the bottling stage of a major brewery at the Cervecería Cuauhtémoc Moctezuma (Heineken Int) in Mexico;• the production scheduling for multi-stage semicontinuous processes at an ice-cream production facility of Unilever in the Netherlands;• the resource-constrained production planning for the yogurt production line at the KRI KRI dairy production facility in Greece; and• the production scheduling for large-scale, multi-stage batch processes at a pharmaceutical batch plant in Germany. In addition, the book includes industrial-inspired case studies of: • the simultaneous planning of production and logistics operations considering multi-site facilities for semicontinuous processes; and• the integrated planning of production and utility systems in process industries under uncertainty. Solving Large-scale Production Scheduling and Planning in the Process Industries offers a valuable reference guide for researchers and decision-makers alike, as it shows readers how to evaluate and improve existing installations, and how to design new ones. It is also well suited as a textbook for advanced courses on production scheduling and planning in industry, as it addresses the optimization of production and logistics operations in real-world process industries.

Download or read book Understanding Batch Chemical Processes written by Thokozani Majozi and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-03-16 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Batch chemical processes, so often employed in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical fields, differ significantly from standard continuous operations in the emphasis upon time as a critical factor in their synthesis and design. With this inclusive guide to batch chemical processes, the author introduces the reader to key aspects in mathematical modeling of batch processes and presents techniques to overcome the computational complexity in order to yield models that are solvable in near real-time. This book demonstrates how batch processes can be analyzed, synthesized, and designed optimally using proven mathematical formulations. The text effectively demonstrates how water and energy aspects can be incorporated within the scheduling framework that seeks to capture the essence of time. It presents real-life case studies where mathematical modeling of batch plants has been successfully applied.
