Adaptations that Reduce Water Loss

Adaptations that Reduce Water Loss

Though evaporation from plant leaves drives transpiration, it also results in loss of water. Because water is critical for photosynthetic reactions and other cellular processes, evolutionary pressures on plants in different environments have driven the acquisition of adaptations that reduce water loss.

Area of Science:

Chemical Engineering
Process Control
Sustainable Manufacturing

Background:

Traditional plantwide control (PWC) strategies often overlook environmental and economic sustainability.
Integrating green chemistry principles into process control can lead to more efficient and responsible chemical manufacturing.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop and evaluate a sustainable plantwide optimizing control (PWOC) strategy for acrylic acid production.
To assess the economic and environmental performance of the sustainable PWOC compared to conventional and non-sustainable PWOC approaches.

Main Methods:

Incorporation of green chemistry principles as constraints within the plantwide optimizing control (PWOC) formulation.
Comparative analysis of the sustainable PWOC strategy against a non-sustainable PWOC and a conventional PWC structure in an operational acrylic acid plant environment.

Main Results:

The sustainable PWOC achieved the highest cumulative profitability ($1.6274 × 10^5 USD), outperforming the non-sustainable PWOC (1.4330 × 10^5 USD) and decentralized PWC (1.4158 × 10^5 USD).
The sustainable PWOC demonstrated significant reductions in process emissions: 6.17% lower than non-sustainable PWOC and 9.79% lower than decentralized PWC.
The strategy effectively mitigated impacts on global warming and human health through explicit green chemistry metric integration.

Conclusions:

Integrating green chemistry principles into PWOC formulation is a viable and effective strategy for enhancing both economic performance and environmental sustainability in chemical plants.
The proposed sustainable PWOC approach offers a significant improvement over traditional control strategies, leading to reduced emissions and increased profitability.
