maintain the MTBE product purity within the desired range at the highest isobutene
conversion possible. However, MTBE purity and isobutene conversion have strong
interaction, hence need a multiple input–multiple output (MIMO) based control system. In this
work, MIMO model Predictive control (MPC) and Proportional Integral (PI) decoupling have
been implemented to control both the MTBE purity and isobutene conversion by …
