Optimal Shale Gas Water Management: A Perspective from the Cooperative Games Theory (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Caballero, J., Reyes-Labarta, J., Ruiz-Femenia, R., Salcedo-Díaz, R., & Onishi, V. (2018). Optimal Shale Gas Water Management: A Perspective from the Cooperative Games Theory. In 2018 AIChE Annual Meeting

Cooperation is gaining importance in different fields of process management due to highly complex network structures. Therefore, it is not sufficient to plan operations in terms of isolated decision making. While examining cooperation, many decision...

Holistic Planning Model for Sustainable Water Management in the Shale Gas Industry (2018)
Journal Article
Carrero-Parreño, A., Reyes-Labarta, J. A., Salcedo-Díaz, R., Ruiz-Femenia, R., Onishi, V. C., Caballero, J. A., & Grossmann, I. E. (2018). Holistic Planning Model for Sustainable Water Management in the Shale Gas Industry. Industrial & Engineering Chemi

To address water planning decisions in shale gas operations, we present a novel water management optimization model that explicitly takes into account the effect of high concentrations of total dissolved solids (TDS) and temporal variations in the im...

Optimal synthesis of work and heat exchangers networks considering unclassified process streams at sub and above-ambient conditions (2018)
Journal Article
Onishi, V. C., Quirante, N., Ravagnani, M. A., & Caballero, J. A. (2018). Optimal synthesis of work and heat exchangers networks considering unclassified process streams at sub and above-ambient conditions. Applied Energy, 224, 567-581. https://doi.org/10

Work and heat exchanger networks have recently drawn increasing attention due to their paramount importance in achieving energy savings. In this work, we introduce a new optimization model for the cost-effective synthesis and energy integration of wo...
