Abstract
Public policy, dollar rate, market prices, contracts values and equipment efficiency influence the costs of the energy sources at an ethylene plant. The aim of this research is to identify energy efficiency opportunities at the energy management resources in a petrochemical industry. It was proved that using MILP makes it possible to achieve energy efficiency gains. MILP proved to be effective, accurate and robust. It confirmed the importance of modeling and simulation with quick response and its implementation in a higher possible rate, since the potential gains running the model once per day were 81% higher than performing it once a month. The optimal resources choice had an average annual potential saving of US$ 556.000/year.
期刊介绍：
Applied Petrochemical Research is a quarterly Open Access journal supported by King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology and all the manuscripts are single-blind peer-reviewed for scientific quality and acceptance. The article-processing charge (APC) for all authors is covered by KACST. Publication of original applied research on all aspects of the petrochemical industry focusing on new and smart technologies that allow the production of value-added end products in a cost-effective way. Topics of interest include: • Review of Petrochemical Processes • Reaction Engineering • Design • Catalysis • Pilot Plant and Production Studies • Synthesis As Applied to any of the following aspects of Petrochemical Research: -Feedstock Petrochemicals: Ethylene Production, Propylene Production, Butylene Production, Aromatics Production (Benzene, Toluene, Xylene etc...), Oxygenate Production (Methanol, Ethanol, Propanol etc…), Paraffins and Waxes. -Petrochemical Refining Processes: Cracking (Steam Cracking, Hydrocracking, Fluid Catalytic Cracking), Reforming and Aromatisation, Isomerisation Processes, Dimerization and Polymerization, Aromatic Alkylation, Oxidation Processes, Hydrogenation and Dehydrogenation. -Products: Polymers and Plastics, Lubricants, Speciality and Fine Chemicals (Adhesives, Fragrances, Flavours etc...), Fibres, Pharmaceuticals.
