Description
Enterprise-wide blend planning is helpful in the optimization process of refinery operations. This type of planning requires integrated scheduling and planning to minimize the gap between the operations required for production scheduling and raw material procurement. Blending optimization is subject to many constraints. These model constraints are operational constraints – meaning limits of the equipment used and quality constraints on volume and analyzers. This topic discusses the blend planning process, gasoline blending, model constraints, optimization options, heel tracking, and quality correlations. In addition, it discusses further the optimization algorithm, multi-product/multi-period planning, rollover planning, interfaces with other systems, enterprise-wide blend planning, blends short-term planning process, etc.
