Improving data reconciliation and yield accounting
Here's how the Mathura Refinery's data reconciliation and yield accounting project was implemented
Practical process control system metrics
Here are several useful examples
Agile supply chain planning
Providing a common workspace improves data integration
Service-oriented architecture simplifies data source integration
Here's how the approach helps refinery scheduling and also contributes to business-wide SOA adoption
Predicting octane numbers for gasoline blends using artificial neural networks
The ANN models were more accurate than regression models
Implementing and maintaining advanced process control on continuous catalytic reforming
The primary benefit was an increase in reformate octane barrel yield from operating the plant at its economic constraints
Computational fluid dynamics simulation of solid–liquid slurry flow
The resulting model's predictions showed reasonably good agreement with the experimental data
Genetic algorithm tuning improves artificial neural network models
The technique is illustrated by predicting hold-up of slurry flow in pipelines
