OPTIMIZATION OF A CRUDE DISTILLATION UNIT USING PARAMETRIC DESIGN OF TAGUCHI AND RESPONSE SURFACE METHODS

This research work proposes a systematic procedure for determining and reducing the number of decision variables in the case of operational optimization of a crude distillation unit (CDU). The proposed procedure is based on the parametric design of the Taguchi and response surface methods. The Ta...

Variables with more than 90% contribution factors are selected and validated with the response surface method. A sequential quadratic programming (SQP) algorithm is then employed to optimize a profit function based onthereduced number of decision variables.
