Abstract
In recent years considerable effort has been devoted to the mathematical simulation of chemical plants using flowsheeting techniques. There are three stages to consider:
-
i)
synthesizing a total flowsheet (see e.g. M.D.Lu, R.L.Motard [8])
-
ii)
Mathematical Simulation (see e.g. H.P.Hutchinson, D.J.Jackson, W.Morton [6], L.M.Timár, F.Simon, Z.Csermely, J.Siklós, S.Bacskai, Eder [12] and Fredenslund [5])
-
iii)
Optimization
