Abstract
A method for adjusting a blend composition includes: receiving target blend composition data associated with a target blend composition having a target blend property; controlling blend component flow streams to cause blend components to be added to a blend tank to form a blend composition; determining a property of the blend composition; comparing the property of the blend composition with the target blend property; generating control flow instructions based on the property of the blend composition and a machine learning analysis of historical blend data; and adjusting a blend component flow stream of the blend component flow streams to form a modified blend composition in the blend tank.
Claims17
A method for adjusting a blend composition, comprising:
- receiving, with at least one processor, target blend composition data associated with a target blend composition associated with a first order having at least one target blend property, wherein the target blend composition comprises a plurality of blend components, and the target blend composition data comprises a target concentration associated with each of the plurality of blend components;
- controlling, with at least one processor, a plurality of blend component flow streams to cause the plurality of blend components to be added to a blend tank to form a blend composition;
- determining, with at least one processor, at least one property of the blend composition;
- comparing, with at least one processor, the at least one property of the blend composition with the at least one target blend property;
- determining an updated target blend composition having at least one updated target blend property;
- generating, with at least one processor, control flow instructions based on the at least one property of the blend composition and the at least one updated target blend property;
- and
- adjusting, with at least one processor, at least one blend component flow stream of the plurality of blend component flow streams to form the updated target blend composition in the blend tank;
- wherein the updated target blend composition is associated with a second order different from the first order.

- determining, with at least one processor, at least one property of the blend composition;
- comparing, with at least one processor, the at least one property of the blend composition with the at least one target blend property;
- determining an updated target blend composition having at least one updated target blend property;
- generating, with at least one processor, control flow instructions based on the at least one property of the blend composition and the at least one updated target blend property;
- and
- adjusting, with at least one processor, at least one blend component flow stream of the plurality of blend component flow streams to form the updated target blend composition in the blend tank,
- wherein the at least one property of the blend composition and the at least one target blend property have a first difference,
- wherein the at least one property of the blend composition and the at least one updated target blend property of the updated target blend composition have a second difference,
- wherein the method further comprises comparing the first difference and the second difference.
