Dynamic optimization of batch processes I

The optimization of batch and semi-batch processes is becoming more and more popular due to industrial competitiveness and strict environmental regulations. If a reliable dynamic process model is available, dynamic optimization is considered as a promising method for reducing

Many engineering applications call for the open loop optimization of a hybrid (discrete/continuous) dynamic system. Examples include the design of operating procedures for process start-up, shut-down and changeovers, the design of emergency shutdown systems, or the optimal design of inherently dynamic processes such as those operated in a batch

Continuous chemical process will formulate a hybrid system when introducing batch operation. The optimisation of such systems requires dynamic optimisation with control parameters. Considering the complexity of engineering problems, it is usually solved by a direct method such as control vector parameterization (CVP), which reformulates the

Dynamic Process Model. A schematic of the fed-batch fermentation process for nosiheptide is shown in Figure 3 [ 39, 40 ]. The bioreactor/fermentor vessel has volume, VF = 100 L with biomass ( Streptomyces actuosus) in broth volume, V = 60 L at the start of the batch (time, t = 0). Varying the reactor feeding ( F ), temperature ( T ), and pH

The optimal control policies for batch free radical polymerization of styrene catalyzed by a binary mixture of monofunctional initiators have been determined using a multiobjective dynamic optimization technique. The process objectives considered in the optimization include monomer conversion, polymer molecular weight, initiator residue level

A dynamic model of a continuous process can indicate the impact of varying throughput, startup and shutdown, feed and composition changes, troubleshooting, control loop tuning, and real-time optimization. A dynamic simulation of a batch process can be used to study reaction kinetics and thermal performance of a stirred-tank reactor, the effect of

Batch applications are processed on the mainframe without user interaction. A batch job is submitted on the computer; the job reads and processes data in bulk— perhaps terabytes of data— and produces output, such as customer billing statements. An equivalent concept can be found in a UNIX script file or a Windows command file, but a z/OS batch job might process millions of records.

A computation procedure is developed for identification of dynamic model intended for solving the biomass growth-related optimization problems at fed-batch fermentation processes. The model identification relies on exploiting a versatile structure model that covers several particular structure models commonly used in bioprocess engineering practice.

Based on the deterministic description of batch culture expressed in form of switched ordinary differential equations, we introduce a switched stochastic counterpart system with initial state difference together with uncertain switching instants and system parameters to model the process of glycerol biodissimilation to 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PD) induced by Klebsiella pneumoniae (K

Once the dynamic process model, or virtual process plant, is built in the digital twin software, the planned process plant behavior is analyzed over a range of pulp quality parameters, production rates, and operational settings and constraints. Many opportunities for process optimization involve energy savings, chemical saving, or increases

Keywords-batch process; dynamic optimization; output feedback; uncertainty I. INTRODUCTION Batch process is a time-varying system without steady state points. Typically, optimization of batch processes involves technique of dynamic optimization, which can be classified as the analytical and numerical approaches [1].

Since batch reactors are utilized to produce a wide variety of specialty and valuable products, there is a growing interest to optimize batch operation to achieve high quality and purity products while minimizing the production of the undesired by-products. In this work the on-line dynamic optimization algorithms based on the orthogonal collocation on finite elements is employed to modify the

Dynamic System. The fermentation of penicillin takes place in a semi-batch reactor. During the process, the substrate supplied is converted into biomass, from which penicillin is then produced. The model used here was published by Visser et al (2000). Visser, E., Srinivasan B, Palanki S. and Bonvin D.,
