Development of a Machine Learning-based Soft Sensor for an Oil Refinery’s Distillation Column. Ferreira, J., Pedemonte, M., & Torres, A. I. Computers & Chemical Engineering, March, 2022. Paper doi abstract bibtex In this paper, a machine learning framework based on Kaizen Programming is proposed for building a soft-sensor using real historical data from an oil refinery. The soft-sensor estimates the composition of C4 hydrocarbons in the distillate stream of a splitter column. Kaizen Programming is a novel technique that has shown excellent results for symbolic regression problems without requiring a priori selection of the functional bases. The framework follows three different steps: pre-processing of the data, model building with the selected algorithm, and ensemble of different good-fitting models. The final ensemble model accurately predicts operation of the column at and between two steady states, outperforming the model based on Gaussian Process in both validation and soft-sensor degradation scenarios.
