A coupled modeling of design and investment parameters for optimal operation of methane bioreactors: Attainable region concept approach
Neba Abunde, Fabrice; Nana, Aseidu; Addo, Ahmad; Morken, John; Østerhus, Stein Wold; Seidu, Razak (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Current practice to design methane bioreactors does not consider all degrees of freedom simultaneously, which raises question of global optimality. This study presents a model-based design framework, which simultaneously ... -
Attainable regions and fuzzy multi-criteria decisions: Modeling a novel configuration of methane bioreactor using experimental limits of operation
Neba, Fabrice Abunde; Asiedu, Nana Yaw; Addo, Ahmad; Seidu, Razak (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)This study sets out to develop an approach that couples attainable regions and fuzzy multicriteria decision methods for modeling optimal configurations of multistage digesters without using a kinetic model of the process. ... -
Can the operating limits of biogas plants operated under non-isothermal conditions be defined with certainty? Modeling self-optimizing attainable regions.
Neba, Fabrice Abunde; Tornyeviadzi, Hoese Michel; Asiedu, Nana Y.; Addo, Ahmad; Morken, John; Østerhus, Stein Wold; Seidu, Razak (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Uncertainty in operating parameters such as temperature undermines the reliability of using kinetic models in performance projections for plants operated under ambient non-isothermal conditions. This study develops a ... -
Simulation of two-dimensional attainable regions and its application to model digester structures for maximum stability of anaerobic treatment process
Neba, Fabrice Abunde; Asiedu, Nana Yaw; Addo, Ahmad; Morken, John; Østerhus, Stein Wold; Seidu, Razak (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Unlike high-rate anaerobic digesters that employ some mechanism to retain microbial sludge mass, low-rate systems use sufficiently long hydraulic retention times to ensure process stability, which becomes economically ... -
Use of attainable regions for synthesis and optimization of multistage anaerobic digesters
Neba, Fabrice Abunde; Asiedu, Nana Yaw; Addo, Ahmad; Morken, John; Østerhus, Stein Wold; Seidu, Razak (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Anaerobic digestion involves multiple reactions, and when operated as a single stage, the process conditions are only suitable for all the reactions with no particular reaction being optimized, hence limiting overall ...
