  • Systems and methods for plant process optimization
    Patent number: 12784876
    Abstract: A control system for optimising a fuel generation process performed by a synthetic fuel generation plant. The system comprises an interface unit configured to be communicably coupled to the synthetic fuel generation plant; a digital twin representative of the synthetic fuel generation plant; and an optimisation unit in communication with the interface unit and the digital twin. The optimisation unit is configured to perform an optimisation process to determine, from an initial state of the synthetic fuel generation plant, an updated state of the fuel generation plant using the digital twin.
    Type: Grant
