Abstract:We consider the problem of planning and scheduling physical and chemical processes on a multiproduct chemical batch production plant. Such a plant consists of several multi-purpose processing units and storage facilities of limited capacity. Given primary requirements for final products, the problem consists in generating an appropriate set of batches for each process and scheduling the processing of those batches on the processing units subject to different types of technological constraints.
