通过数学规划方法设计具有混合结构的水回用网络

A new design method for a water-reusing network, with a hybrid structure, to reduce the complexity of the network and to minimize freshwater consumption, is proposed. The unique feature of the methodology proposed .in this article is to control the complexity of the water network by regulation of the control number in a water-reusing system. It combines the advantages of a conventional water-reusing network and a water-reusing net work with internal water mains. To illustrate the proposed method, a single contaminant system and a multiple contaminant system serve as examples of the problems.     

含再生再利用的用水系统的最小新鲜水和相应的再生水用量的确定

A sequential three-step programming method is proposed for determining the minimum flowrate of fresh water and corresponding regenerated water in water-using system of single contaminant with regeneration reuse.In step 1, a programming with the objective of min fws is used to determine the minimum flowrate of fresh water,in which the mathematical representation is a mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP1). Then under the same constraints with step 1, a programming with the objective of min freg in step 2 and a programming with the objective of rain Cr in step 3 are subsequently used to determine the minimum flowrate of regenerated water and the minimum inlet concentration to regeneration process corresponding to the minimum flowrate of fresh water based on step 1. The method is easy to apply because we only need to change the objective function but keep the constraints constant to go along the following steps after step 1. In addition, the relationship between the fresh water flowrate required, fws, and inlet concentration to regeneration process, Cr, is investigated. It is found that there exist three relationships between fws and Cr, which indicate three possibilities for Cb: below the pinch, above the pinch or at the pinch. Therefore, a new conclusion is drawn, which differs from that “regeneration of water at pinch minimizes fresh water flowrate“ derived in literature and indicates that in some cases, regeneration at other point also minimizes fresh water flowrate.     

一种新的废水处理系统设计方法

This paper mainly discusses the design of distributed effluent treatment systems with single contaminant.A new method is put forward and four basic rules are provided.The key point of the method is that global optimality is obtained by guaranteeing the optimality of each step taken in the design.Costs per unit mass of removed contaminant are used as a scale to choose the next combination of an effluent stream and a treatment process.The remaining problem is updated after each choice.As for multiple contaminants,a two-stage method is adopted.At the first stage,the sub-networks for each contamiant are designed by the method mentioned above;at the second stage,the sub-networks are merged together in a new way.Overall,the paper presents a simple but practical framework for the effluent treatment system design.     

Cathodic Hydrogen as Electron Donor in Enhanced Reductive Dechlorination

In situ capping is an attractive and cost-effective method for remediation of contaminated sediments, but few studies on enhancing contaminant degradation in sediment caps have been reported, especially for chlorinated benzenes. Electrically enhanced bioactive barrier is a new process for in situ remediation for reducible compounds in soil or sediments. The primary objective of this study is to determine if electrodes in sediment could create a redox gradient and provide electron acceptor/donor to stimulate degradation of chlorinated contaminant. The results demonstrate that graphite electrodes lead to sustainable evolution of hydrogen, displaying zero-order kinetics in the initial stages with different voltages. The constant rates of hydrogen evolution at 3, 4, and 5 V are 1.05, 2.54, and 4.3 nmol·L 1·d 1, respectively. Even higher voltage can produce more hydrogen, but it could not keep long time because the over potentials on electrode surfaces prevent its function. The study shows that 4 V is more appropriate for hydrogen evolution. The measured and evaluated concentration of 1,2,3,5-tetrachlorobenzene in pore water of sediment and concentration of sulfate show that dechlorination is inhibited at higher concentration of sulfate.     

A procedure for design of hydrogen networks with multiple contaminants☆

It is necessary to reduce hydrogen consumption to meet increasingly strict environmental and product-quality regulations for refinery plants. In this paper, the concentration potential concepts proposed for design of water-using networks are extended to synthesis of hydrogen networks with multiple contaminants. In the de-sign procedure, the precedence of processes is determined by the values of concentration potential of demands. The usage of complementary source pair(s) to reduce utility consumption is investigated. Three case studies are presented to il ustrate the effectiveness of the method. It is shown that the design procedure has clear engineer-ing meaning.

Synthesis of Water Utilization System Using Concentration Interval Analysis Method （ Ⅰ ） Non-Mass-Transfer-Based Operation

The proposed approaches are illustrated with example problems.

Pinch Location of the Hydrogen Network with Purification Reuse

In the hydrogen network with the minimum hydrogen utility flow rate, the pinch appears at the point with zero hydrogen surplus, while the hydrogen surpluses of all the other points are positive. In the hydrogen purity profiles, the pinch can only lie at the sink-tie-line intersecting the source purity profile. According to the alternative distribution of the negative and positive regions, the effect of the purification to the hydrogen surplus is analyzed. The results show that when the purification is applied, the pinch point will appear neither above the purification feed nor between the initial pinch point and the purification feed, no matter the purification feed lies above or below the initial pinch point. This is validated by two case studies.     

The development of Fructus corni quality standard considering the effects of processing

The quality standards for Fructus Comi have been established based on the effects of the manufacturing processes.Three critical process parameters(CPPs) of extraction,filtration,and concentration to prepare Fructus Comi concentrate were identified by Plackett-Burman design with a single batch of Fructus Corni,which were heating medium temperature,extraction time,and water addition.Morroniside yield,loganin yield,and dry matter yield were process critical quality attributes(CQAs).CPPs arranged with a Box-Behnken design were applied to treat different batches of Fructus Comi After constructing a model that included CPPs,material propertie s,and process CQAs,loganin content was found to be the critical material attribute(CMA).The design space was calculated with a probability method.According to the limits of process CQAs,the minimum content of loganin in Fructus Corni was calculated with an error propagation method,which was 6.92 mg·g~(-1).When the content of loganin in Fructus Corni reaches up to 6.92 mg·g~(-1), the material is considered high-quality and is most suitable for the process.High-quality material can be used for production of Fructus Comi concentrate.This method can also be used to set material quality standards for other Chinese medicines.     

简捷法确定提纯回用氢网络目标值

与只考虑直接回用的氢网络相比,具有提纯单元的氢网络能显著减少新鲜氢气的消耗量,但其设计及求解提纯目标值过程均更为复杂。对于单杂质、提纯单元采用固定浓度模型的提纯回用氢网络,结合此类网络的特点,提出了一种简捷法确定网络目标值。首先假设提纯后氢物流量足够大,由此得出初始提纯夹点。当初始夹点估算正确时,由夹点之下的需求物流和源物流的流量与杂质质量衡算即可得出提纯回用氢网络的目标值;当初始夹点估算不正确时,可以第一次计算结果为基础判断得出正确夹点,再增加一步简单计算,也可得到提纯回用目标值。计算实例表明本文方法计算简单且有效。     

Segregated targeting for multiple resource networks using decomposition algorithm

A generalized decomposition technique is presented for determining optimal resource usage in segregated targeting problems with single quality index (e.g., concentration, temperature, etc.) through pinch analysis. The latter problems are concerned with determining minimal resource requirements of process networks characterized by the existence of multiple zones, each consisting of a set of demands and using a unique external resource. However, all the zones share a common set of internal sources. The decomposition algorithm allows the problem to be decomposed into a sequence of subproblems, each of which can in turn be solved using any established graphical or algebraic targeting methodology to determine the minimum requirement of respective resource. This article presents a rigorous mathematical proof of the decomposition algorithm, and then demonstrates its potential applications with case studies on carbon‐constrained energy sector planning, interplant water integration, and emergy‐based multisector fuel allocation. © 2009 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 2010

提纯回用氢网络的夹点变化规律

在氢系统中引入提纯装置可以经济有效地提高氢气的回用率,是氢系统中广泛采用的方法。但引入提纯回用过程可能会影响氢系统的夹点位置,还可能使氢系统出现多夹点。由于夹点对系统性能的分析与优化具有极其重要的作用,而夹点位置的变化则会影响到用氢过程的匹配。在氢夹点技术的基础上,通过图示分析法,研究了在不同提纯产品浓度下提纯回用过程的夹点变化规律和趋势,对于考虑提纯回用的氢网络集成具有重要的意义。

再生循环水系统引入再生过程后夹点位置

引入再生循环的最优水系统可以最大限度地节约新鲜水的用量和减少废水的排放,是当前节水技术研究的重点。用水系统引入再生过程后,极限供水线会发生变化,从而水系统夹点个数以及位置都可能会发生变化。运用前人总结出的再生循环过程最佳供水线的构造方法,分析影响引入再生过程后夹点位置变化的因素,发现引入再生过程前后夹点位置的变化情况与以下因素有关：极限复合曲线上的凹点位置以及凹向极限供水线的程度和最高浓度用水单元水流率与新鲜水流率的关系,并分析得出夹点位置的变化规律,从而为用水网络的分析和设计提供理论性的指导。

换热网络操作夹点分析与旁路优化控制

换热网络夹点设计法是从设计的角度,针对某一给定的典型操作条件而进行的,而炼油化工过程的生产条件经常在一定范围内波动。在实际的生产中,换热网络的操作夹点和最小温差与设计值往往不尽相同,为换热网络的优化控制带来了一定困难。因而近年来对于换热网络夹点技术以及旁路优化控制方面的研究不断深入,但将夹点技术与换热网络控制集成的方法仍不成熟。本文从操作的角度求解并分析换热网络结构已定或网络正在运行情况下的操作夹点,定性分析操作夹点的变化规律,并提出在操作夹点附近设置旁路实现网络的旁路优化控制,从而将夹点技术应用于换热网络旁路优化控制中。实例仿真表明,这一旁路优化控制方法在满足控制要求的同时明显降低了网络的总公用工程,验证了其有效性。     

Integrating expanders into heat exchanger networks above ambient temperature

The integration of expanders into heat exchanger networks (HENs) is a complex task since both heat and work are involved. In addition, the role of streams (as hot or cold), the utility demand, and the location of pinch points may change. With certain well‐defined conditions, four theorems are proposed for the integration of expanders into HENs above ambient temperature with the objective of minimizing exergy consumption. A straightforward graphical methodology for above ambient HENs design including expanders is developed on the basis of Grand Composite Curves (GCCs). It is concluded that to achieve a design with minimum exergy consumption, stream splitting may be applied and expansion should be done at pinch temperatures, hot utility temperature, or ambient temperature. In the majority of cases, however, and in line with the concept of Appropriate Placement from Pinch Analysis, expansion at pinch temperatures gives the minimum exergy consumption. © 2015 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 61: 3404–3422, 2015     

A rigorous targeting algorithm for resource allocation networks

Techniques of process integration can be applied to conserve resources such as energy, freshwater, cooling water, hydrogen, solvent, etc. Process integration methodologies are broadly classified into two categories: methodologies based on the mathematical optimization techniques and methodologies based on the conceptual approaches of pinch analysis. In this paper, a mathematically rigorous methodology is proposed to minimize the requirement of a natural resource in a chemical process industry. The proposed methodology combines the simplicity of the pinch analysis with the mathematical rigor of mathematical optimization techniques. Conservation of resource in a chemical process industry is posed as a network flow optimization problem and a simple algebraic methodology is proposed to solve the optimization problem. The proposed algebraic methodology is mathematically proved in this paper. The proposed algorithm is numerically faster than the general mathematical optimization methods used for solving optimal resource allocation problems.
