Abstract

- Waste cooking oil is used to produce bio-diesel, which promotes sustainability.
- Studied bio-diesel process is close to industrial practice (namely, Lurgi process).
- Complete bio-diesel plant is optimized for economic and environmental objectives.
- Evolutionary algorithm provides alternate optimal designs for bio-diesel process.
- One plant design is chosen and optimized in case of variation in feed flow rate.
