How to do mass balance if crude A = 15, 24.8, 40.1, and 20.1 and Crude B = 15,25.1,40.1, and 19.8 with crude price of 2.05$/kg and 2.07$/kg respectively? ALSO, with respective cut A = 18,24,42, and 16, cut B= 15,10,54, and 21 with prices 3.82$/kg and 3.61$/kg respectively.?goal: if all products are to be sold, what is the blend ratio of the two crude oils that maximizes the profits?. Treat each cut as a pseudo component 1 to 4,the way you can define 4 component mass balances and one general mass balance equation. Your goal is to calculate the flows of each of your products (1 to 4). You could check the validity of your system of equations by assuming only one crude oil, but optimization needs the blending of the two crudes.
