DYNAMIC SIMULATION OF A SUCROSE BATCH EVAPORATIVE CRYSTALLIZER FOR OPERATORS TRAINING, Rogelio Mazaeda, César de Prada.
This paper presents a simulated environment for training operators in the conduction of a beet sugar batch evaporative crystallizer. The simulation system combines a first principles dynamic model of the process, its simulation in the state-of-the-art environment EcosimPro, and a simulator that includes typical control configurations and allows operating the process in a similar way that in a control room of the sugar factory.
STAKEHOLDERS SATISFACTION IN RETAIL BUSINESS BASED ON INNOVATIVE MODEL SOLUTION, Agostino Bruzzone, Luca Pierfederici, Matteo Mazzarese, Marina Massei
The paper proposes focuses on an innovative integrated work’s island model for retail business. The system required simulation for properly computation of workload and number of workers required in each island; the proposed case was implemented for 14 stores of a leader brand in retail business, supporting both Ipermarkets and Supermarkets networks
MODELLING AND SIMULATION OF A BEET PULP DRYER, Merino A., Alves R., Acebes L. F., De Prada C.
The purpose of drying is to eliminate a liquid substance from a solid matrix through evaporation by supply of heat. In the case of the pulp dryers used by the sugar industry, the purpose is to evaporate the water in the sugar beet pulp after its sucrose has been removed. This dry pulp is a sub product used as food for cattle. This paper deals with the modeling and simulation of a pulp dryer in order to improve the knowledge of its inner behavior and to include the developed models in a training simulator. For achieve this objectives the paper has been divided as follows. First a process description is made, second the main modeling considerations have been described, finally, the paper will show the integration of the developed model in a training simulator for plant operators including the main malfunctions related with the drying process.
ADVANCED MODELS FOR PERFORMANCE CONTROL IN SUPERMARKET LOGISTICS MANAGEMENT, Agostino Bruzzone, Enrico Bocca, Luca Pierfederici, Marina Massei, Simonluca Poggi
The present research concerning the application of an innovative and advanced set of models and key indexes for performance control, devoted to logistics management in supermarkets. Efficient check, evaluation and monitoring of significant variables make possible to estimate the improvements due to implementation of innovative technologies, with consideration to the company system for inventory management and to the demand forecast models applied to retail stores.
