Shipboard carbon capture is a promising solution to reduce carbon emissions in international shipping.
A data-driven dynamic modeling and economic predictive control approach is proposed within the Koopman framework for shipboard post-combustion carbon capture plants.
A deep neural Koopman operator modeling approach is used to establish a time-varying model predicting economic operational cost and system outputs based on accessible state measurements.
The proposed method improves economic operational performance, carbon capture rate, and ensures safe operation by satisfying hard constraints on system outputs.
