Quasi-Random Sampling-Enhanced Metaheuristic Algorithms for CAMD-Based Solvent Selection in Octacosanol Extraction

This study develops a computer-aided molecular design (CAMD) framework to select solvents for extracting octacosanol from multicomponent sugarcane wax. The solvent-selection problem is formulated as a mixed-integer nonlinear programming problem in which candidate solvents are gen...
