Parameters and constraints of the genetic algorithm.

GA parameters Constraints of the problem
Generation size = 1000 Oxidation temperature = 250 °C (constant)
Population size = 20 VOCs concentration = 1000 ppmv (constant)
Elite count Catalyst structure must be an integer number (1, 2 or 3)
Crossover fraction = 0.9 and crossover method = doublepoint 2 < cobalt content (wt%) < 6
Mutation rate = 0.65 2 < copper content (wt%) < 6
Objective functions = maximize (toluene and cyclohexane conversion)
