Optimization strategy for long-term catalyst deactivation in a fixed-bed reactor for methanol synthesis process

In this study, the application of a repeated process estimation-optimization strategy is investigated for a methanol synthesis reactor system in the presence of a slowly deactivating catalyst. The purpose of this strategy is to update the optimal transition of the control variable profile with feedb...
