A pinch analysis approach to environmental risk management in industrial solvent selection
Kazantzi V.; Kazi M.-K.; Eljack F.; El-Halwagi M.M.; Kazantzis N. ( Springer Verlag , 2019 , Article)Abstract: The problem of solvent selection in an industrial process has been examined in a number of different approaches, often including single- and multi-criteria optimization techniques. Traditionally, it has been ... -
A process design approach to manage the uncertainty of industrial flaring during abnormal operations
Kazi M.-K.; Eljack F.; Amanullah M.; AlNouss A.; Kazantzi V. ( Elsevier Ltd , 2018 , Article)Flare management challenges are related to the flaring uncertainty during abnormal situations. In this work, a multi-objective optimization framework is upgraded with multi-period optimization and Monte Carlo simulation ... -
Application of i-SDT for safer flare management operation
Kazi M.-K.; Eljack F.; Al-Sobhi S.A.; Kazantzis N.; Kazantzi V. ( Institution of Chemical Engineers , 2019 , Article)Utilizing unburn flare streams in a safe way represents one of the key challenges during flare alternatives implementation. Most of the time, process safety is considered on a supplemental basis after accomplishing a ... -
Characterization of Industrial Flaring under Uncertainty for the Design of Optimum Flare Recovery and Utilization Systems
Kazi, M.-K.; Eljack, F.; Al-Sobhi, S.A.; Kazantzi, V.; Kazantzis, N. ( Elsevier B.V. , 2022 , Book chapter)One of the main challenges in industrial applications is to optimally manage flare gases that are inevitably generated both in routine and non-routine process operations but can yet constitute valuable energy resources for ... -
Framework for Design under Uncertainty Including Inherent Safety, Environmental Assessment, and Economic Performance of Chemical Processes
Ortiz-Espinoza A.P.; Kazantzi V.; Eljack F.T.; Jiménez-Gutiérrez A.; El-Halwagi M.M.; Kazantzis N.K.... more authors ... less authors ( American Chemical Society , 2019 , Article)Typically, analysis and design of chemical processes is carried out considering average values of inherently uncertain data that pertain to key design and process variables that shape its performance. In this work, a ... -
Mitigation of operational failures via an economic framework of reliability, availability, and maintainability (RAM) during conceptual design
Al-Douri, A.; Kazantzi, V.; Eljack, F.T.; Mannan, M.S.; El-Halwagi, M.M. ( Elsevier Ltd , 2020 , Article)Abnormal process situation may lead to tremendous negative impact on sustainability, wellbeing of workers and adjacent communities, company's profit, and stability of supply chains. Failure of equipment and process subsystems ... -
Optimal Scheduling of Biodiesel Plants through Property-based Integration with Oil Refineries
Kazantzi, V.; Bezergianni, S.; Elms, R.; Eljack, F.; El-Halwagi, M.M. (2011 , Book)This paper addresses the design and scheduling problem of biodiesel plants in conjunction with typical oil refineries via blending of biodiesel and petro-diesel. The feedstocks are often seasonal and their availability and ...
