Dynamic Optimization and Production Planning of Thermal Cracking Operation
This work addresses the dynamic optimization of the production period of thermal crackers with respect to coke formation in the cracking coil and transfer line exchanger. Optimal time dependent trajectories of feed rate, steam to hydrocarbon ratio, and reaction severity are calculated. The net earni...
