Abstract

A differential evolution (DE) algorithm for determining 16 advanced turning model parameters of a 1.2 million industrial fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) unit modeling by HYSYS 8.4 is presented. Industrial data from a Chinese petroleum refinery were used to develop, train and check the model. Due to FCC complexity, the proposed model is capable of predicting the yield of products based on main operating conditions. The optimized FCC model is used for further optimized analysis of the FCC unit operating conditions based on the maximum of economic benefits. Prediction of the economic benefit of FCC unit increases 917 yuan/h at the optimized operating conditions.
