The residue fluidized catalytic cracking unit is chosen as a starting point for building the ROM in PYOMO using a trust-region framework for glass box/black box optimization [2]. Since ROMs are sufficiently accurate only in a restricted zone around the point in decision variable space where they are constructed [3], they are evaluated and compared with the detailed EO model in the following aspects: 1. Ease to generate the model; 2. Model running time; 3. Optimal result accuracy (objective function and variables); 4. Sensitivity to the offset (ε); and 5. Stability of extrapolation.
