Chemical process control

BMEVEVMA504

Aims of the chemical process control. Areas and methods of process control, feed forward control, feed back control. Mathematical basics, dynamic behaviours. Transfer function, frequency function. Model and modelling of chemical units and process from control point of view. Stability, its definitions in time, frequency, and Laplace domain. Controllers, controller algorithms, different controls and their characterizations.

Controller tuning. Actuators, control valves. Basic controls: level, flow, pressure, temperature controls. Cascade controls. Control of multivariable processes. Interaction

among control loops. Examples and solutions for the control of chemical units and processes.
