Global Optimization of Reactive Distillation Processes Using Bat Algorithm

Reactive distillation (RD) is an important process intensification approach with several advantages. It can improve the reaction selectivity and yield, overcome the thermodynamic restrictions, and reduce the cost/energy. However, the optimal design of RD relies on highly nonlinear and multivariable...
