Abstract
The energy-saving optimization problem of the propylene distillation column was investigated. A PRO/II process simulation model was established based on the actual operating data of the unit and a sensitivity analysis of the operating parameters was conducted. On this basis, a multi-objective optimization model for the unit was established using regression analysis. The penalty function mechanism and dynamic search factor were incorporated into the MOGWO algorithm to solve the optimization model. The optimization results demonstrate that by optimizing multiple sets of operating parameters, the propylene distillation column can increase its production while reducing its energy consumption, achieving energy-saving optimization for the unit. This method provides a new theoretical basis for the energy-saving optimization design of propylene distillation units and other distillation processes.
