Abstract:
Currently, there is no tool on the market that measures the economic impact of the operation of a refinery due to the fact that this sector is little digitized. Therefore, the €kon$ tool is implemented to optimize the operation of a valuable refinery unit, the delayed coker. The €kon$ tool is a tool that allows optimizing the operation of a refinery to maximize its economic benefit while taking into account the safety, reliability and legal emissions of the plant
