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) | |
