Optimal production and scheduling of a process with decaying catalyst

Abstract: A multiperiod mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) optimization model is presented to schedule catalyst changeovers and determine the best operating policy for a chemical process with decaying performance. Two solution strategies are proposed to reduce the effect of nonconvexities and to reduce the solution time: (1) a search strategy that relies on partitioning the time horizon and (2) a strategy that makes use of the Generalized Benders Decomposition (GBD).Keywords: catalyst deactivation, production p… Show more

“…1. The number of catalyst loads considered in Bizet et al (2005) was either or 3. If that number was increased, the number of combinations involved in their solution methodology would increase exponentially and so, obtaining good solutions would require a very large amount of computational e↵ort.…”
