Journal ArticleDOI
Planning and scheduling models for refinery operations
TL;DR: In this paper, a nonlinear planning model for refinery production is presented, which is able to represent a general refinery topology and allows the implementation of nonlinear process models as well as blending relations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mixed-Integer Linear Programming Model for Refinery Short-Term Scheduling of Crude Oil Unloading with Inventory Management
TL;DR: In this article, a mixed-integer optimization model is developed which relies on time discretization to solve the problem of inventory management of a refinery that imports several types of crude oil which are delivered by different vessels.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Continuous Time Mixed Integer Linear Programming Model for Short Term Scheduling of Multistage Batch Plants
TL;DR: In this article, a large scale mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model with continuous time domain representation is proposed that relies on the use of parallel time axes for units and tasks.
Journal ArticleDOI
A general modeling framework for the operational planning of petroleum supply chains
TL;DR: The focus of the present work is to propose a general framework for modeling petroleum supply chains, which is a large-scale MINLP and results show model performance by analyzing different scenarios.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimal production planning under time-sensitive electricity prices for continuous power-intensive processes
TL;DR: A discrete-time, deterministic MILP model that allows optimal production planning for continuous power-intensive processes and emphasizes the systematic modeling of operational transitions, that result from switching the operating modes of the plant equipment, with logic constraints.
