Advanced process control system with MPC as a new approach for layer of protection analysis

Layer of protection analysis (LOPA) is a widely used method to support process safety in the chemical industries. In the LOPA, the process is classified into many layers, one of such layers considers the basic process control system (BPCS) which commonly uses PID controllers. This kind of controllers cannot deal with constraints. For this reason, the main purpose of this work is to provide a framework to enhance the control layer in the LOPA, which consists of a model predictive control (MPC) with safety features. These features include: sublayers in the controller system (such as real time optimization, target calculation, and MPC), safety constraints, and guarantee of stability by adopting an Infinite Horizon MPC (IHMPC). Here, we propose an approach for control-inspired view to process safety, replacing the BPCS by an Advanced Process Control System (APCS). Moving forward with these concepts, first, a literature review emphasizes the content, showing two perspectives for the APCS. The APCS is designed for two varieties of controllers, a basic IHMPC and IHMPC with zone control to compare the performance. In this framework, the first sublayer consists of a real time optimization (RTO) structure, that calculates the optimal operating condition for the process controller, which computes the control action. Besides, RTO has an additional constraint called the safety index, based on the protection of process operational. RTO and basic IHMPC communicate directly, while for IHMPC with zone control there is an inner sublayer called Target Calculation, it computes a feasible target to the controller, working as another safety strategy in APCS. After that, we demonstrate both structures applied to a CSTR reactor. From the case study, we compared both controllers, and evaluated the effect that the safety index constraint causes in the setpoints, outputs, and control actions. The use of safety constraint in RTO proved to be a safe strategy for the control layer, as well as IHMPC with zone control presented a safer profile than basic IHMPC. Furthermore, the results show that safety constraint affect the economic goal, decreasing its value.     

人工湿地水力停留时间分布模拟

将人工湿地视为在纵向分散活塞流反应器（PFD）的主流道上并联一个n级串联完全混合反应器（CSTRs）所组成的系统.在这一物理概念的基础上,推导了模拟人工湿地水力停留时间分布（RTD）的CSTRs＋PFD并联模型.模型所包含的4个参数（串联CSTRs个数n,串联CSTRs容积占系统总容积的百分数z,进入串联CSTRs的流量占总流量百分数f,PFD的分散数D）对RTD的峰值时间、峰值高度、平均停留时间、停留时间分布方差具有良好的调节作用.与传统模型相比,该模型能更准确地反映不同人工湿地的特征水流规律.模型采用基于流量的无量纲时间变量,可应用于非稳态变流量下人工湿地RTD的模拟.用前期示踪剂试验所获得的5条水平潜流人工湿地的RTDs对该模型进行验证,当这4个参数取值为z=0.41、f=0.57、n=3、D=0.667时,该模型计算所得RTD与实测RTDs拟合程度良好,较传统PFD或CSTRs模型能更好地反映该人工湿地RTD早期高峰、峰值集中、尾部倾斜拖长的流态特征.     

MBBR-A2O/MBR处理农村生活污水动力学研究

采用MBBR-A2O/MBR(又称BCO-MBR)工艺,对水质特征呈现低碳源高氮磷、水质波动大和日变化系数大等特点的农村生活污水进行研究。对比MBBR-A2O/MBR工艺在5种不同水力停留时间下的(0.42 d、0.50 d、0.75 d、1.25 d、1.50 d)运行状况,挑选出最佳的水力停留时间,并利用Lawrence-McCarty模型构建该工艺的污染物降解动力学方程。结果表明,随着水力停留时间(HRT)的延长,MBBR-A2O/MBR工艺对污染物的去除效果逐渐提升。当HRT为1.25d,CODCr、NH3H、TN、TP平均进水质量浓度分别280.67mg/L、36.88 mg/L、50.59 mg/L、2.51 mg/L时,平均出水质量浓度分别为34.33 mg/L、3.19 mg/L、5.13 mg/L、0.63 mg/L,平均去除率分别可达87.86%、89.92%、89.85%、74.95%。CODCr、NH3H、TN出水质量浓度在城镇污水排放标准一级A限值以下,TP出水质量浓度达到一级B标准,因此确定最佳的HRT为1.25 d。污染物降解动力学计算所得模拟值与实际出水质量浓度测量值拟合度良好,其中CODCr模拟值与平均测量值一致性最高,相对误差在0.02~0.14,NH3H与TN的相对误差分别在0.19~0.60和0.1~0.33。这表明污染物降解动力学方程可以较好地模拟工艺出水的污染物质量浓度。CODCr降解动力学方程常数为Vmax=0.19 d-1,KS=82.97 mg/L;NH3H降解动力学方程常数为Vmax=0.02d-1,KS=8.49 mg/L;TN降解动力学方程常数为Vmax=0.024 d-1,KS=8.10 mg/L。研究的动力学常数与传统活性污泥法动力学常数相比,KS较高,而Vmax较低,导致Vmax较低的主要原因可能是测定的污泥质量浓度高于实际有效的质量浓度。研究对利用MBBR-A2O/MBR工艺处理农村生活污水和传统活性污泥工艺提标改造具有一定的应用参考价值。     

Numerical studies on minimum ignition energies in methane/air and iso-octane/air mixtures

In this study, the dependence of minimum ignition energies (MIE) on ignition geometry, ignition source radius and mixture composition is investigated numerically for methane/air and iso-octane/air mixtures. Methane and iso-octane are both important hydrocarbon fuels, but differ strongly with respect to their Lewis numbers. Lean iso-octane air mixtures have particularly large Lewis numbers. The results show that within the flammability limits, the MIE for both mixtures stays almost constant, and increases rapidly at the limits. The MIEs for both fuels are also similar within the flammability limits. Furthermore, the MIEs of iso-octane/air mixtures with a small spherical ignition source increase rapidly for lean mixtures. Here the Lewis number is above unity, and thus, the flame may quench because of flame curvature effects. The observations show a distinct difference between ignition and flame propagation for iso-octane. The minimum energy required for initiating a successful flame propagation can be considerably higher than that required for initiating an ignition in the ignition volume. For iso-octane with a small spherical ignition source, this effect was observed at all equivalence ratios. For iso-octane with cylindrical ignition sources, the phenomenon appeared at lower equivalence ratios only, where the mixture's Lewis number is large. For methane fuel, the effect was negligible. The results highlight the significance of molecular transport properties on the decision whether or not an ignitable mixture can evolve into a propagating flame.

为了分析瓶级聚酯切片（PET）生产过程中分析筛处理量对其静电带电特性的影响,基于颗粒振动摩擦带电模拟试验,研究单颗粒PET振动摩擦带电饱和量以及多颗粒PET振动带电荷质比数据。结果表明:瓶级PET产品静电半衰期超过80 ks;PET单颗粒与金属分析筛碰撞摩擦时带电量随振动时间增加趋于饱和,且单粒子荷质比大小可超过16 nC·g-1;随着分析筛内PET总质量增加,PET颗粒间碰撞几率增加,但PET的荷质比值迅速降低。利用工业振动筛处理PET时,应尽量提高总颗粒处理量以控制颗粒带电,抑制静电对粉尘吸附作用,有利于脱除切片中携带的粉尘。

The effects of daylight saving time on vehicle crashes in Minnesota

Introduction: Daylight saving time (DST), implemented as an energy saving policy, impacts many other aspects of life; one is road safety. Based on vehicle crash data in Minnesota from 2001 to 2007, this paper evaluates long- and short-term effects of DST on daily vehicle crashes. Method: To provide evidence to explain the causes of more/fewer crashes in DST, we examine the impact of DST on crashes in four periods of a day: 3 a.m.-9 a.m., 9 a.m.-3 p.m., 3 p.m.-9 p.m., 9 p.m.-midnight. The effects of risk and exposure to traffic are also separated. Our statistical models not only include weather conditions and dummy variables for days in DST as independent variables, but also consider traffic volumes on major roads in different periods of a day. Our major finding is that the short-term effect of DST on crashes on the morning of the first DST is not statistically significant. Moreover, it is interesting to notice that while DST per se is associated with fewer crashes during dusk, this is in part offset because it is also associated with more traffic on roads (and hence more crashes). Our path analysis shows that overall DST reduces crashes. Impact on industry: Daylight saving time can lead to fewer crashes on roads by providing better visibility for drivers.     

城市综合承灾能力与经济发展协调性研究

构成城市综合承灾能力的防灾能力、抗灾能力、救灾能力和灾后恢复能力是相互联系的。城市综合承灾能力与城市经济发展水平紧密相连。利用灰关联熵方法,分析了某城市各种承灾能力的关联性大小,以及综合承灾能力与城市经济发展水平的关联强度。但关联性强,却不能说明协调得就好。因此,又利用灰色系统理论的思想,分析了城市综合承灾能力与城市经济发展水平的协调关系,发现城市综合承灾能力对城市经济发展水平有明显的滞后性。分析得出该滞后性存在的原因后,通过对序列进行时间平移,证实了对滞后性原因的判断,并提出了加快加强城市综合承灾能力建设的建议,为后续发展奠定坚实基础。     

地铁车站人员疏散离散时间模型研究

疏散时间对于保证地铁车站这类复杂建筑结构内人群的安全至关重要,本文借鉴群集流动理论建立了用于计算地铁车站人群移动时间的疏散离散时间模型(EDTM),模型中的人群流动系数取值不同于传统计算公式中的常量,依据的是经典的车站人群密度与速度函数关系式。将此模型用于某地铁车站站台层,求解楼梯出口疏散人数与时间的关系,并与Building EXODUS疏散软件的模拟结果以及传统地铁车站疏散时间计算公式的计算结果进行了对比,分析表明,EDTM计算结果与EXODUS疏散模拟结果非常接近,且比传统公式计算更为精确和符合实际情况。该计算模型可以为地铁车站人群疏散时间计算、建筑出口性能化设计,以及地铁车站事故应急预案的制定提供更有效的工具。
