Optimization of Skikda LNG plant operation using a mixed non-linear programming model.

Author(s) : AINOUCHE A.

Summary

Liquefaction plants are very big energy consumers technological systems. The reduction of the fuel consumption passes by the use of optimization technique based on the criterion of the minimum of energy consumption or equivalent criteria. The modelling procedure presented in this work enables to define optimal operation of an LNG plant composed of several liquefaction trains by the turn to account of a non-linear programming algorithm of type associated to a procedure of "branch and bound" type.
