A novel approach for infeasible path optimization of distillation-based flowsheets

In this work, a new approach for simultaneous steady state simulation and optimization of distillation-based flowsheets is presented. The process simulation is embedded in an optimization problem with a small number of optimization variables and constraints. Hence, no specialized solvers are needed....
