Title
Decomposition approaches for the design and scheduling of multiproduct multistage batch plants with parallel lines
Abstract
•Use of the Resource-Task Network formulation for the design and scheduling of a chemical batch plant with parallel lines.•Formulation of an MILP model that can be solved with an exact method (integral approach).•Implementation of 3 decomposition approaches to tackle the computational burden.•All approaches obtain (near) optimal solutions in less time compared to the integral approach.
