ABSTRACT:
Methods and systems for substantially optimizing plant operations within a manufacturing environment. The method can include separating the manufacturing environment into two or more individual modules, wherein each individual module contains a fundamental principles-based model, and wherein the totality of the individual modules represents the entire manufacturing environment. Each individual module can be independently parameterized upon said module reaching steady state, wherein inter-module data flow can be provided to at least one of the individual modules during parameterization, and wherein an output of the parameterization comprises an individual, calibrated steady-state model of each individual module. A reduced order model can be derived from each parameterized module, and the reduced order models can be assembled to provide a facility reduced order model. The facility reduced order model can then be solved to provide improved or new operating conditions or operating condition targets.
