Abstract: A control system for automatic operation of a hydrocracking unit is shown. The control system includes a control device operable to affect at least one of a yield or a product quality of one or more output oil products provided as outputs of the hydrocracking unit. The control system further includes a controller configured to obtain an objective function that quantifies a value of operating the hydrocracking unit as a function of at least one of the yield or the product quality of the one or more output oil products, use a neural network model to generate a target control device setpoint predicted to optimize the objective function when the hydrocracking unit operates at the target control device setpoint, and operate the control device using the target control device setpoint to modulate at least one of the yield or the product quality of the one or more output oil products.

Abstract: A control system for automatic operation of a fluid catalytic cracking unit includes a reactor severity control device operable to modulate a temperature affecting volume gain within the fluid catalytic cracking unit and a controller. The controller includes a processing circuit configured to calculate the volume gain within the fluid catalytic cracking unit by comparing a volume based on one or more input oil feeds to the fluid catalytic cracking unit to a volume of one or more output oil products of the fluid catalytic cracking unit. The processing circuit is further configured to use a neural network model to generate a target severity predicted to optimize the volume gain within the fluid catalytic cracking unit. The processing circuit is further configured to operate the reactor severity control device using the target severity to modulate the temperature affecting the volume gain within the fluid catalytic cracking unit.
