This book was released on with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper we have proposed a semi-heuristic optimization algorithm for designing optimal plant layouts in process-focused manufacturing/service facilities. Our proposed algorithm marries the well-known CRAFT (Computerized Relative Allocation of Facilities Technique) with the Hungarian assignment algorithm. Being a semi-heuristic search, our algorithm is likely to be more efficient in terms of computer CPU engagement time as it tends to converge on the global optimum faster than the traditional CRAFT algorithm - a pure heuristic. We also present a numerical illustration of our algorithm.

Download or read book A New Trend in Designing Plant Layouts for the Process Industry written by Richart Vazquez-Roman and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The numerical difficulty of solving the layout problem even without toxic release has been clearly identified in (Vázquez-Román et al., 2009). An example considers two new facilities and the control room to be installed in a given land where there exist two installed facilities. While applying several optimization methods and using different initializations, three optima results were found. It should then be clear than increasing the number of units may produce more local optima and the question would remain about what is the best layout. The global optimum for this case was obtained through a global optimizer in GAMS (Brooke et al., 1998), but the time required to achieve the solution is too high and this time became unpractical when the number of facilities was increased. To test the stochastic approach, a chlorine release was considered to occur in one of the installed facilities. All information required for the stochastic approach is provided in (Vázquez-Román et al., 2009). In this case two optimum layouts were detected with different GAMS solvers, Fig. 3. Though the global optimum was clearly identified, it was observed that it produced a small value in the cost associated to the financial risk whereas this cost became negligible in the other local optimum. Hence the question is again about what solution should be better to use. Another disadvantage of the stochastic approach is the time required to get the parameters of the exponential decay function for the probability of death. In principle, a high number of simulations should be used in the Monte Carlo procedure. The number of calculations could be reduced by reducing the number of direction-sectors but again a large number would produce more representative results. These results have been ratified with other examples in (Vázquez-Román et al., 2008). Solving the layout with the deterministic approach tends to produce more conservative layouts (Diaz-Ovalle et al., 2008). However, when the toxic material is too toxic this approach may produce layouts occupying a large area. This was the case for the example used in (Vázquez-Román et al., 2009). This approach has the advantage that no extra calculation is required to incorporate the wind effect since calm conditions and hence symmetric effect is assumed. Thus the deterministic approach tends to enforce prevention, mitigation and removal of hazards to reduce the required land. This is typically achieved by inserting devices so that the final layout becomes more expensive than the one produced with the stochastic approach. This approach is justified by the fact that several severe accidents have occurred when calm conditions prevailed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plant Design and Operations provides practical guidance on the design, operation, and maintenance of process facilities. The book is based on years of hands-on experience gathered during the design and operation of a wide range of facilities in many different types of industry including chemicals, refining, offshore oil and gas, and pipelines. The book helps managers, engineers, operators, and maintenance specialists with advice and guidance that can be used right away in working situations. Each chapter provides information and guidance that can be used immediately. For example, the chapter on Energy Control Procedures describes seven levels of positive isolation — ranging from a closed block valve all the way to double block and bleed with line break. The Safety in Design chapter describes topics such as area classification, fire protection, stairways and platforms, fixed ladders, emergency showers, lighting, and alarms. Other areas covered in detail by the book include security, equipment, and transportation. A logical, practical guide to maintenance task organization is provided, from conducting a Job Hazards Analysis to the issue of a work permit, and to the shutdown and isolation of equipment. Common hazards are covered in detail, including flow problems, high pressure, corrosion, power failure, and many more. Provides information to managers, engineers, operators and maintenance personnel which is immediately applicable to their operations Supported by useful, real-world examples and experience from a wide range of facilities and industries Includes guidance on occupational health and safety, industrial hygiene and personal protective equipment
