Dewaxing models digitalization in the mathematical model of winter diesel fuel production

Abstract

The climatic features of Russia, as well as the need for the development of the Arctic and the Great Northern Sea Route, require an increase in the production of winter diesel fuel. The object of the study is obtaining winter diesel fuel. The subject of the study is digitalizing oil-refining processes by building the mathematical model of winter diesel fuel production for the case of combining dewaxing regimes taking into account the logistical aspect. Main research methods: retrospective data analysis, synthesis, comparison, optimization theory methods. A literary review was carried out, the main methods for improving the low-temperature properties of winter diesel fuel were revealed. Study hypothesis: a combination of dewaxing regimes will increase the yield of denormalizate and, accordingly, winter diesel fuel. The authors for each mode of dewaxing compiled a mathematical model. Then, the authors constructed a mathematical model of obtaining winter diesel fuel for a combination of dewaxing regimes and taking into account the logistical aspect. The obtained mathematical model can be used to obtain the required amount of winter diesel fuel with compliance with quality requirements and taking into account the logistical aspect.
