Process Parameter Optimization

Our passion for efficiency

We know how demanding the steam cracking process can be on radiant coils. And we also know that different customers have different concepts of performance and optimization.

However, a good example of what we can offer you in terms of optimization is the optimal operation point shown below.

After defining the current status and creating a mathematical model of your radiant coil design, we can find the optimal conversion point, for instance regarding ethylene production.

We can also focus on any other parameter of your interest to provide you the required optimization goal.

With us, you have a long-lasting partner that is always glad to lend a helping hand.

How it works

From raw data to real optimization

We turn your process data into useful insights through a proven combination of data cleaning, analysis, simulation and optimization. Our method is designed to identify the best operating conditions for your specific furnace setup and production goals.

Current state definition

Your process data is part of the system

Starting with a clear definition of your requirements and the raw data provided, we proceed to clean it.

We identify and correct unsuitable data formats, merge the datasets and filter out errors and implausible measurements.

Analysis

The key to understanding

With a clear goal and clean data, we apply advanced statistical analyses to develop a precise mathematical model.

Simulation

The key to optimizing

Once we have translated the operation data into a mathematical model, we can then start to run simulations.

These simulations allow us to find the key parameters which can be optimized, of course always based on your specific requirements.

Optimization

The finish line is only the start

Based on the mathematical model simulations as well as your particular requirements, we can predict which key parameters could have the highest impact on furnace efficiency.

Or we can simply focus on other optimization targets of your choice!
