PNS has a long history, and numerous methods for executing it are available. Its acceleratedly increasing importance can be attributed to the need to respond to the rapid emergence of new technologies and fast changes in the economic environment. It is highly desirable that any corporation be able to ascertain if a new technology is viable for its business as well as to assess if its current technology remains sustainable in the changing environment. Herein, a novel method and software for PNS are proposed for generating, optimizing, and analyzing alternative process designs at the conceptual level. The method is illustrated by synthesizing alternative process designs with different network structures for the production of butanol, ethanol, and acetone from grains. Furthermore, the sustainability of the resultant process designs is analyzed. This is executed by varying the payout period and the production rate, i.e., load. © 2012 American Chemical Society.}, keywords = {Ethanol; Acetone; Mathematical programming; Sustainable development; Production rates; P-graphs; Process design; Mathematical programming models; Process networks; Changing environment; Network structures; Alternative process; Conceptual levels; Economic environment; Current technology}, year = {2013}, eissn = {1520-5045}, pages = {166-171}, orcid-numbers = {Bertók, Botond/0000-0002-1297-9792} } @article{MTMT:2370308, title = {P-graph synthesis of open-structure biomass networks}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/2370308}, author = {Lam, HL and Klemeš, Jiri Jaromir and Varbanov, Petar and Kravanja, Z}, doi = {10.1021/ie301184e}, journal-iso = {IND ENG CHEM RES}, journal = {INDUSTRIAL & ENGINEERING CHEMISTRY RESEARCH}, volume = {52}, unique-id = {2370308}, issn = {0888-5885}, abstract = {This paper presents an extended implementation of a P-graph for an open-structure biomass network synthesis.

The methodology is an outcome of the collaboration between the Office of Research and Development (ORD) of the U.S. EPA and the research group led by the creators of the P-graph framework at the University of Pannonia. The integration of supply chain design and sustainability is the main focus of this collaboration. The P- graph framework provides a mathematically rigorous procedure for synthesizing optimal and alternative suboptimal networks subject to multiple objectives and constraints, which include profitability and sustainability in the proposed methodology. Specifically, to evaluate the sustainability of a given process under construction including its supply chain, sustainability metrics are incorporated into the design procedure. The proposed methodology is demonstrated with the optimal design of a supply chain for providing heat and electric power to an agricultural region with relatively limited land area where agricultural wastes can potentially be recovered as renewable resources. The objective functions for optimization comprise the profit and the ecological footprint. The results of the study indicate that, compared to using electricity from the grid and/or natural gas, using renewable energy resources can yield substantial cost reductions of up to 5%, as well as significant ecological footprint reductions of up to 77%. It may, therefore, be possible to design more sustainable supply chains that are both cost-effective and less environmentally damaging. © 2012 American Chemical Society.}, year = {2013}, eissn = {1520-5045}, pages = {266-274}, orcid-numbers = {Bertók, Botond/0000-0002-1297-9792} } @article{MTMT:2060145, title = {Planning Evacuation Routes with the P-graph Framework}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/2060145}, author = {Garcia Ojeda, Juan Carlos and Bertók, Botond and Friedler, Ferenc}, doi = {10.3303/CET1229256}, journal-iso = {CHEM ENG TR}, journal = {CHEMICAL ENGINEERING TRANSACTIONS}, volume = {29}, unique-id = {2060145}, issn = {1974-9791}, year = {2012}, eissn = {2283-9216}, pages = {1531-1536}, orcid-numbers = {Bertók, Botond/0000-0002-1297-9792} } @article{MTMT:1690541, title = {Solving vehicle assignment problems by process-network synthesis to minimize cost and environmental impact of transportation}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/1690541}, author = {Barany, M and Bertók, Botond and Kovács, Zoltán and Friedler, Ferenc and Fan, L T}, doi = {10.1007/s10098-011-0348-2}, journal-iso = {CLEAN TECHNOL ENVIRON POLICY}, journal = {CLEAN TECHNOLOGIES AND ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY}, volume = {13}, unique-id = {1690541}, issn = {1618-954X}, year = {2011}, eissn = {1618-9558}, pages = {637-642}, orcid-numbers = {Bertók, Botond/0000-0002-1297-9792} } @article{MTMT:1689381, title = {Solution of separation-network synthesis problems by the P-graph methodology}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/1689381}, author = {Heckl, István and Friedler, Ferenc and Fan, LT}, doi = {10.1016/j.compchemeng.2010.01.019}, journal-iso = {COMPUT CHEM ENG}, journal = {COMPUTERS & CHEMICAL ENGINEERING}, volume = {34}, unique-id = {1689381}, issn = {0098-1354}, year = {2010}, eissn = {1873-4375}, pages = {700-706} } @article{MTMT:1674664, title = {Optimisation of regional energy supply chains utilising renewables: P-graph approach}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/1674664}, author = {Lam, H L and Varbanov, Petar and Klemeš, Jiri Jaromir}, doi = {10.1016/j.compchemeng.2009.11.020}, journal-iso = {COMPUT CHEM ENG}, journal = {COMPUTERS & CHEMICAL ENGINEERING}, volume = {34}, unique-id = {1674664}, issn = {0098-1354}, abstract = {This paper presents a new method for regional energy targeting and supply chain synthesis. The method is based on a novel approach to the optimisation of renewable energy supply. A new algorithm for revealing energy supply chain clusters is introduced, described and illustrated by a case study. It has been developed on two levels. The first is a top-level supply chain network with lowest Carbon Footprint generated. It consists of a number of zone clusters. The definition of zones is provided; it can be e.g. a village or a town. Each zone is considered as a unit. At the second level is a supply chain synthesis carried out by P-graph based optimisation within each cluster. It provides a more detailed analysis. The use of the P-graph framework as a synthesis toolset provides a strong mathematically proven fundament for handling the complexity of the synthesis problem. It contributes to the optimal network design with a high computational efficiency. This approach contributes to the cleaner generation of energy from biomass, approaching CO2 neutrality as much as possible. It is beneficial for extending the use of biomass as a renewable source of energy. © 2010.}, keywords = {Optimization; BIOMASS; Supply chain management; Renewable energy source; Renewable energy sources; Clustering algorithms; Computational efficiency; Process graphs; P-graphs; Regional Energy Clustering Algorithm; Process graph (P-graph); Biomass supply chain synthesis; Carbon footprint; Supply chains; Carbon footprint minimisation; Biomass supply chain}, year = {2010}, eissn = {1873-4375}, pages = {782-792} } @article{MTMT:1689347, title = {Graph-theoretic approach to the catalytic-pathway identification of methanol decomposition}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/1689347}, author = {Lin, Yc and Fan, L T and Shafie, S and Bertók, Botond and Friedler, Ferenc}, doi = {10.1016/j.compchemeng.2009.12.004}, journal-iso = {COMPUT CHEM ENG}, journal = {COMPUTERS & CHEMICAL ENGINEERING}, volume = {34}, unique-id = {1689347}, issn = {0098-1354}, year = {2010}, eissn = {1873-4375}, pages = {821-824}, orcid-numbers = {Bertók, Botond/0000-0002-1297-9792} } @article{MTMT:1251118, title = {Generation of light hydrocarbons through Fischer–Tropsch synthesis: Identification of potentially dominant catalytic pathways via the graph–theoretic method and energetic analysis}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/1251118}, author = {Lin, YC and Fan, LT and Shafie, S and Bertók, Botond and Friedler, Ferenc}, doi = {10.1016/j.compchemeng.2009.01.003}, journal-iso = {COMPUT CHEM ENG}, journal = {COMPUTERS & CHEMICAL ENGINEERING}, volume = {33}, unique-id = {1251118}, issn = {0098-1354}, year = {2009}, eissn = {1873-4375}, pages = {1182-1186}, orcid-numbers = {Bertók, Botond/0000-0002-1297-9792} } @article{MTMT:1230386, title = {Price-targeting through iterative flowsheet syntheses in developing novel processing equipment: Pervaporation}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/1230386}, author = {Fan, LT and Zhang, T and Seib, P and Friedler, Ferenc and Bertók, Botond}, doi = {10.1021/ie070976l}, journal-iso = {IND ENG CHEM RES}, journal = {INDUSTRIAL & ENGINEERING CHEMISTRY RESEARCH}, volume = {47}, unique-id = {1230386}, issn = {0888-5885}, year = {2008}, eissn = {1520-5045}, pages = {1556-1561}, orcid-numbers = {Bertók, Botond/0000-0002-1297-9792} } @article{MTMT:1230382, title = {Catalytic pathways identification for partial oxidation of methanol on copper-zinc catalysts: CH3OH+1/2O(2)<-> CO2+2H(2)}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/1230382}, author = {Lin, YC and Fan, LT and Shafie, S and Hohn, KL and Bertók, Botond and Friedler, Ferenc}, doi = {10.1021/ie070931k}, journal-iso = {IND ENG CHEM RES}, journal = {INDUSTRIAL & ENGINEERING CHEMISTRY RESEARCH}, volume = {47}, unique-id = {1230382}, issn = {0888-5885}, year = {2008}, eissn = {1520-5045}, pages = {2523-2527}, orcid-numbers = {Bertók, Botond/0000-0002-1297-9792} } @article{MTMT:1268041, title = {P-graph methodology for cost-effective reduction of carbon emissions involving fuel cell combined cycles}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/1268041}, author = {Varbanov, Petar and Friedler, Ferenc}, doi = {10.1016/j.applthermaleng.2008.02.007}, journal-iso = {APPL THERM ENG}, journal = {APPLIED THERMAL ENGINEERING}, volume = {28}, unique-id = {1268041}, issn = {1359-4311}, abstract = {Fuel cells are under extensive investigation for building combined energy cycles due to the higher efficiency potential they offer.
