A Simple Synthesis Method Based on Utility Bounding for Heat‐Integrated Distillation Sequences
TL;DR: In this paper, a lower bound on the utility use for single distillation tasks and for distillationsequences is derived for designs involving simple two product columns that may or may not be multieffected.

Generalized Disjunctive Programming Model for the Optimal Synthesis of Thermally Linked Distillation Columns
TL;DR: In this paper, the synthesis of distillation column configurations to separate non-azeotropic multicomponent mixtures containing N components is addressed, for sharp separations of an N-component mixture.
Journal ArticleDOI
The synthesis of distillation-based separation systems
TL;DR: Developing both algorithmic- and heuristic-based tree search algorithms for discovering the better systems of non-heat-integrated columns and new results permit the design of heat- integrated systems are highlighted.
