Use advanced predictive analytics for early detection and warning of column flooding events
In this study, a methodology was implemented to predict crude distillation tower flooding events based on key process variables, including product yields, column pumparound (PA) flowrates, column temperatures and overhead reflux flowrate.
Optimize a CDU using process simulation and statistical modeling methods
A methodology was implemented to optimize the operation of a refinery crude distillation unit (CDU) using a combination of process simulation and statistical modeling methods.
Optimize alkylation unit operation by using response surface methods
