Abstract

In this work, we present a systematic framework for the synthesis of safely operable process intensification systems. Herein, intensified designs are automatically generated by using phenomena-based Generalized Modular Representation Framework, while their safety and operability performances are guaranteed by incorporating: (i) flexibility analysis and multiperiod design, (ii) inherent safety analysis utilizing quantitative risk assessment, and (iii) multi-parametric model predictive control strategies developed via the PAROC framework. As an example from a broader set of intensified systems, the proposed framework is applied to heat exchanger network synthesis for thermal intensification, demonstrating its capability on enhancing safety and operability at early design stage.

Towards a systematic framework for the synthesis of operable process intensification systems

Journal Article Tian, Yuhe ; Mannan, M. Sam ; Pistikopoulos, Efstratios N. - Computer Aided Chemical Engineering

In this work we present an integrated framework to derive intensified designs with guaranteed safety and operability performance. A step-by-step procedure is described featuring: (i) superstructure-based process synthesis using Generalized Modular Representation Framework, (ii) development of advanced multi-parametric control strategies following the PAROC framework and software platform, and (iii) inherent safety analysis at early design stage utilizing quantitative risk assessment. Here, two case studies with increasing intensification complexity, namely heat exchanger network synthesis and reactive distillation column design, are investigated to demonstrate the capabilities of the proposed framework.

Synthesis of Operable Process Intensification Systems—Steady-State Design with Safety and Operability Considerations

Journal Article Tian, Yuhe ; Pistikopoulos, Efstratios N. - Industrial and Engineering Chemistry Research

In this work, we present an integrated approach to synthesize process intensification systems with guaranteed flexibility and safety performances. The synthesis of intensified equipment/flowsheets is addressed through the Generalized Modular Representation Framework (GMF), which utilizes an aggregation of multifunctional mass/heat exchange modules to represent chemical processes. Thus, the optimal design options are investigated as mass- and heat-transfer opportunities using superstructure-based optimization techniques without a prepostulation of plausible configurations. To ensure that the designs can be operated under a specified range of uncertain parameters, a multiperiod GMF representation is developed based on the critical operating conditions identified by flexibility test.

A Systematic Framework for the synthesis of operable process intensification systems – Reactive separation systems

Journal Article Tian, Yuhe ; Pappas, Iosif ; Burnak, Baris ; ... - Computers and Chemical Engineering

In this work, we propose a systematic framework to synthesize process intensification systems with guaranteed operability, safety, and control performances accounting for both steady-state design and dynamic operation. A step-wise procedure is outlined which synergizes: (i) phenomena-based process synthesis with the Generalized Modular Representation Framework to derive novel intensified design configurations, (ii) flexibility and risk analysis for evaluation of operability and inherent safety performances at conceptual design stage, (iii) explicit/multi-parametric model predictive control following the PAROC (PARametric Optimisation and Control) framework to ensure dynamic operation under uncertainty, and (iv) simultaneous design and control via dynamic optimization to close the loopmore »« less

Operability and control in process intensification and modular design: Challenges and opportunities

Journal Article Pistikopoulos, Efstratios N. ; Tian, Yuhe ; Bindlish, Rahul - AIChE Journal

Abstract In this article, the importance of considering operability and control criteria in the analysis and design of intensified and modular processes is discussed. We first analyze the impact on operability of key factors including: (i) degrees of freedom, (ii) process constraints, (iii) numbering up vs. scaling up, and (iv) dynamic/periodic operation. Comparative examples are presented to showcase the pros and cons in intensified/modular systems vs. their conventional counterparts from operability and control aspects. Then we look into metrics and tools to address these challenges such as: (i) flexibility analysis, (ii) operability‐based design, and (iii) advanced model‐based control.

Generalized Modular Representation Framework for the Synthesis of Extractive Separation Systems

Journal Article Tian, Yuhe ; Pistikopoulos, Efstratios N. - Computer Aided Chemical Engineering

In this work, a systematic process synthesis and intensification method is presented for extractive separation based on the Generalized Modular Representation Framework (GMF). GMF employs a mass/heat exchange module-based superstructure representation, incorporating detailed thermodynamic model, to investigate conventional or intensified process options for nonideal azeotropic separation without a pre-postulation of plausible unit/flowsheet configurations. Orthogonal Collocation is also applied to enhance GMF representation to obtain intra-module operation information and module dimensionality estimation while maintaining model size compactness. Furthermore, entrainer selection, process synthesis, design, and intensification are examined within a single mixed-integer nonlinear optimization (MINLP) problem. A case study on the separationmore »« less
