Additional information

This application of MOGA to pressure swing adsorption for the production of nitrogen from air based on kinetic selectivity highlighted challenges due to the numerical complexity of the dynamic simulations of the process. The unibed efficient simulation of multicolumn adsorption is relevant for carbon capture (DoI:10.1016/j.apenergy.2012.11.034) and the optimization approach is relevant also to biological separations (DoI: 10.1016/j.bej.2012.08.013). It has paved the way for more detailed work as part of the Innovative Gas Separations for Carbon Capture project (EP/G062129/1), where significant improvements in optimization times have been achieved by combining surrogate modelling and MOGA in carbon capture applications.
