Abstract
Simulation-based optimization models are widely applied to find optimal operating conditions of processes. Often, computational challenges arise from model complexity, making the generation of reliable design solutions difficult. We propose an algorithm for replacing non-linear process simulation models integrated in multi-level optimization of a process and energy system superstructure with surrogate models, applying an active learning strategy to continuously enrich the database on which the surrogate models are trained and evaluated. Surrogate models are generated and trained on an initial data set, each featuring the ability to quantify the uncertainty with which a prediction is made. Until a defined prediction quality is met, new data points are continuously labeled and added to the training set. They are selected from a pool of unlabeled data points based on the predicted uncertainty, ensuring a rapid improvement of surrogate quality. When applied in the optimization superstructure, the surrogates can only be used when the prediction quality for the given data point reaches a specified threshold, otherwise the original simulation model is called for evaluating the process performance and the newly obtained data points are used to improve the surrogates. The method is tested on three simulation models, ranging in size and complexity. The proposed approach yields mean squared errors of the test prediction below 2% for all cases. Applying the active learning approach leads to better predictions compared to random sampling for the same size of database. When integrated in the optimization framework, simpler surrogates are favored in over 60% of cases, while the more complex ones are enabled by using simulation results generated during optimization for improving the surrogates after the initial generation. Significant time savings are recorded when using complex process simulations, though the advantage gained for simpler processes is marginal. Overall, we show that the proposed method saves time and adds flexibility to complex superstructure optimization problems that involve optimizing process operating conditions. Computational time can be greatly reduced without penalizing result quality, while the continuous improvement of surrogates when simulation is used in the optimization leads to a natural refinement of the model.

Abstract
![]()
In
this paper, we develop a knowledge graph-based framework for
the automated calibration of combustion reaction mechanisms and demonstrate
its effectiveness on a case study of poly(oxymethylene)dimethyl ether
(PODEn, where n = 3)
oxidation. We develop an ontological representation for combustion
experiments, OntoChemExp, that allows for the semantic enrichment
of experiments within the J-Park simulator (JPS, theworldavatar.com), an
existing cross-domain knowledge graph. OntoChemExp is fully capable
of supporting experimental results in the Process Informatics Model
(PrIMe) database. Following this, a set of software agents are developed
to perform experimental result retrieval, sensitivity analysis, and
calibration tasks. The sensitivity analysis agent is used for both
generic sensitivity analyses and reaction selection for subsequent
calibration. The calibration process is performed as a sampling task,
followed by an optimization task. The agents are designed for use
with generic models but are demonstrated with ignition delay time
and laminar flame speed simulations. We find that calibration times
are reduced, while accuracy is increased compared to manual calibration,
achieving a 79% decrease in the objective function value, as defined
in this study. Further, we demonstrate how this workflow is implemented
as an extension of the JPS.

Abstract
Biodiesel production is a field of outstanding prospects due to the renewable nature of its feedstock and little to no overall CO2 emissions to the environment. Data-based soft sensors are used in realizing stable and efficient operation of biodiesel production. However, the conventional data-based soft sensors cannot grasp the effect of process uncertainty on the process outcomes. In this study, a framework of data-based soft sensors was developed using ensemble learning method, i.e., boosting, for prediction of composition, quantity, and quality of product, i.e., fatty acid methyl esters (FAME), in biodiesel production process from vegetable oil. The ensemble learning method was integrated with the polynomial chaos expansion (PCE) method to quantify the effect of uncertainties in process variables on the target outcomes. The proposed modeling framework is highly accurate in prediction of the target outcomes and quantification of the effect of process uncertainty.
