Abstract
The process of isomerization is one among the key processes of oil generation in the production of motor gasoline of a given quality, and so, it is the purpose of every refinery for the process to be used to the fullest. To this end, there have been process advancements through the introduction of new units, such as feed prefractionation in deisopentanizer column, and separation of isomerization products through the application of molecular sieves or fractionation column. Further process advancements are based on a continuos optimization in real time, enabling the mastering and minimization of the impact of process bottlenecks, as well as maximum capacity use.
Mathematical models have been set up consisting of both dependent and independent values, for the purpose of exploring optimal working conditions, while the paper explores the possibilities of a continuous optimization in real time, the stress being on field application.
