Optimal Fixed Bed Reactor Network Configuration for the Efficient Recycling of CO2 into Methanol

An optimal design strategy of a network of fixed bed reactors for Methanol Production (MP) is proposed in this study. Both methanol production and profit spanning a production period of eight years have been set as objective functions to find the optimal production network. The conservation of mass...
