Summary
The problem of synthesizing an optimal multicomponent separation flowsheet according to capital and operating expenses is solved by a branch and bound (B&B) method. The algorithm can fmd the optimal sequence and all the sequences whose costs are within a specified factor of the cost of the optimal sequence.
