Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
The application proposes a new systematic approach for the design optimisation of integrated reactor networks. The proposed approach will combine a superstructure mode; with stochastic optimisation techniques. The model will include different reactor units as well as all possible combinations amongst them. Design instances of the model will be reactors in series, series-parallel, parallel, and any other conventional or novel arrangement. The superstructure will be formulated and solved using simulated annealing. The evaluation and assessment of the implementation will be studied against complex reaction schemes and general types of kinetics.
