🟧 HIGHLIGHTS FROM OUR PAST NEWSLETTERS
1. Compare Online Versus Lab Analysis: Understanding Why, Where, And When
This article discusses the differences between online and lab analysis for fuel blending in refineries. It highlights Component Tanks, Blend Header, and Final Blend Product Tank, detailing how each can be analyzed through lab analysis, online analysis, blend model-based prediction and AI/machine learning prediction. It emphasizes the importance of accurate quality measurements, comparing NIR analyzers and lab methods.
2. Walk On The Journey With A Lab Sample From Collection To Analysis
Analyzing product quality is crucial for the success of manufacturing businesses, whether receiving raw materials or selling final products. While technologies vary by product type, a common practice is collecting samples for quality analysis. This article explores the journey of a lab sample from collection to analysis in a refinery. It also covers how refineries estimate the cost and load of lab analyses, excluding online process analysis.
3. Evolution of Gasoline Blending Infrastructure and Platform
Fuel blending has evolved from manual to sophisticated analyzer-less systems, with significant hardware, software, and operations advancements. Our Academy Director and CEO, Dr. Suresh Agrawal has been pivotal in this evolution, working on blending automation since the 1980s. Join us as we explore the comprehensive evolution of blending systems in global refineries.
4. Evolution of Gasoline Blending From Manual to Analyzer-Less Systems
Gasoline blending technology has advanced from manual methods to sophisticated systems. Initially using First Principles Blend Models (FPBM) for accuracy, it now integrates AI for optimization. The latest developments include analyzer-less systems that use algorithms and spectroscopy to enhance real-time blending, boosting efficiency and accuracy.
5. Hybrid Model to Integrate FPBM and AI/Machine Learning for Fuel Blending
We’ve evaluated the First Principles Blending Model alongside AI/Machine Learning, highlighting their blending efficacies. The article introduces an integrated model that significantly enhances blending outcomes, exploring strategies to fully utilize the potential of both technologies in blending processes for efficient and Profitable operation.
6. Is AI/Machine Learning Model for the Fuel Blending System A Viable Alternative?
We analyzed the Gold Standard First Principle Blending Model (FPBM), noting its strengths and weaknesses and the reasons for its frequent failures in refineries. Key issues include management’s neglect in maintaining the technology despite losses of $25-40 million annually, and problems from staff attrition, transfers, and inadequate training.
7. First Principles Model or AI for the Blending Control Systems?
First Principles Models use fundamental physical laws to describe system behaviors, often employing mathematical equations. They are crucial when empirical data is scarce or unreliable. The First Principle Model for Fuel Blending (FPBM) outlines how fuel manufacturing processes are modeled and integrated, involving multiple procedures and eleven automation modules to produce gasoline.
8. Can AI Alone Boost Refinery’s Efficient Operations And Profitability? Part I: Myth, Hype, Or Reality?
First Principles Models describe system behaviors using fundamental physical laws and mathematics, vital when lacking empirical data. The First Principle Model for Fuel Blending (FPBM) details the complex, integrated processes of fuel manufacturing, involving multiple steps and eleven automation modules essential for producing gasoline.
9. MCOR Strategy: Managing, Controlling, Optimizing, and Reconciling Operations
One of our recent newsletters focused on the MCOR strategy, a comprehensive approach to managing, controlling, optimizing, and reconciling refining operations. This strategy enhances efficiency and profitability while ensuring safety and compliance. Our newsletter provided an in-depth look at each component of the MCOR strategy, with practical examples and case studies demonstrating its effectiveness in real-world applications.
