Process Dynamics and Control
Keywords:
Process control, Dynamics, Industrial needsAbstract
Changing industrial needs and increased competition in the global marketplace, as well as innovations in computer and communication technologies, have a profound impact on the practice, research and education of process control. Today, process control is viewed as an efficient integration of real-time information management systems with the common regulatory functions to help operate a process safely and efficiently. As such, the process control education needs to be consistent with the current practice and reveal the tendencies in the field. In this paper, we offer the readers a bridge between the traditional role of process control and the current expanded role. This is accomplished by blending the basic concepts with a broader perspective of more integrated process operation, control and information systems. This paper is primarily aimed at students in chemical engineering as well as industrial practitioners to initiate them into the fundamentals and current advances in process control and their implementation.
