Title
Multi-objective optimization of operational variables in a waste incineration plant
Abstract
One of the primary objectives of the operation of a waste incineration plant is to maximise throughput. However, increasing throughput can intensify the loading on the gas-clean-up system and also cause a violation of operational constraints. This may result in penalty costs due to excessive pollution emissions and the need for increased maintenance. Therefore, a multi-objective strategy is required to optimize plant operation in terms of economic and environmental goals, and operational constraints.
