摘要
In this paper a mathematical optimization model is developed for several reactors settings. The model integrates several reactors and is stated in a general form. The model selects the settings for the reactors that maximizes profit subject to operation, selection and environmental constraints. Each setting is determined by a set of operating parameters, which are feed rate, reactor temperature and pressure. The production level and the cost of each setting is determined from the operating parameter and the raw material, label and fuel cost. It is used to optimize Methyl-Tert-Butyle Ether (MTBE) production at the Ibn Zahr Company in Saudi Arabia. The results in the Ibn Zahr case are consistent and elevated MTBE production.
