Abstract:

The development status, main characteristics and basic architecture of online real time optimization(RTO) technology are introduced. The main optimization schemes and application effects of RTO technology in an atmospheric and vacuum distillation unit and ethylene units are emphatically analyzed. Based on the implementation of advanced process control(APC), a strict mechanism model is established for the core equipment of the unit through RTO technology to optimize the entire process. Under the premise of ensuring stable operation and meeting all constraints, real time optimization of unit parameters is achieved to maximize unit benefits. This optimization process has not add production equipment and modify the process flow. The application effect of RTO technology in atmospheric and vacuum distillation units and ethylene units is good, with model convergence rates of 96.0% and 93.3% respectively, and annual benefits of 15.65 million yuan and 23.93 million yuan respectively. Good economic benefits have been achieved. The application of RTO technology helps to continuously improve the control and operation level of the unit, reduce production costs, reduce unit energy consumption, and enhance enterprise competitiveness through tapping potential and increasing efficiency.
