Summary Information provided by the agent in SIGEVA
This paper deals with the development of reduced models of a hydrodesulphurization plant oriented to computing the dynamic hydrogen consumption rates as a function of the plant load. This is part of a wider project oriented to the optimal management of the hydrogen network in a petrol refinery. The proposed models are of hybrid nature, combining physical-chemical principles with black box elements. The paper describes the structure of the models as well as the procedure of calibration and maint... This paper deals with the development of reduced models of a hydrodesulphurization plant oriented to computing the dynamic hydrogen consumption rates as a function of the plant load. This is part of a wider project oriented to the optimal management of the hydrogen network in a petrol refinery. The proposed models are of hybrid nature, combining physical-chemical principles with black box elements. The paper describes the structure of the models as well as the procedure of calibration and maintenance with real data from the process.
