Abstract: Liquefied natural gas (LNG) plants require large amounts of energy to liquefy natural gas (NG). Therefore, many optimization studies have been conducted to minimize this energy consumption. Such studies have usually focused on optimization approaches to overcome the high nonlinearity of NG liquefaction process models. By contrast, decision variables and design bases have barely been investigated.
