The need for rapid and widespread deployment of new technologies to address climate change goals (eg, deep, economy-wide decarbonization) presents new opportunities for …
Flotation is a main mineral concentration technology, which is why the design of flotation circuits has been extensively studied in the literature. However, studies on flotation circuit …
This study presents an optimization framework to identify economically viable pathways for lignin valorization in biorefineries that employ biological upgrading. The economic potential …
Abstract Machine scheduling is one of the most studied problems due to its technical challenges and prevalence in real life. In the literature, continuous-and discrete-time …
Optimization problems with discrete–continuous decisions are traditionally modeled in algebraic form via (non) linear mixed-integer programming. A more systematic approach to …
The optimization of chemical processes is challenging due to the nonlinearities arising from process physics and discrete design decisions. In particular, optimal synthesis and design of …
Most biofuels today come from sources that have some relationship with products of the human diet, which has generated controversy regarding their feasibility for industrial-scale …
Optimal mitigation planning for highly disruptive contingencies to a transmission-level power system requires optimization with dynamic power system constraints, due to the key role of …
We introduce techniques to build small ideal mixed-integer programming (MIP) formulations of combinatorial disjunctive constraints (CDCs) via the independent branching scheme. We …
