Real-time optimization (RTO) has gained growing attention during the past few years as a
useful approach to boost process performance while safety and environmental constraints …

The continuous optimization of the operational performance of chemical plants is of
fundamental importance. This research proposes a method that utilizes policy-constrained …

Concentrations measurements are typically corrupted by noise. Data reconciliation
techniques improve the accuracy of measurements by using redundancies in the material …

The paper proposes a tracking-error passivity-based control scheme for the asymptotic
stabilization of homogeneous reaction systems. The approach uses the concept of vessel …

This work deals with a control strategy to regulate homogeneous reaction systems in
reactors equipped with a cooling jacket. The reaction system is expressed in terms of vessel …

This paper proposes a tracking-error-based multivariable control to stabilise a nonlinear
system at the desired trajectory (including the open-loop unstable equilibrium manifold). The …

In any system, there are some properties, quantities or relationships that remain unchanged
despite the applied transformations (system invariants). For a batch reaction system with n …

Reactive batch distillation (RBD) is a preferred process intensification technology to carry
out equilibrium-limited reactions. It is a multicomponent, multiphase system. Appropriate …

For the investigation of complex reaction systems, it has been proposed to decouple the
various rate processes using a linear time-invariant transformation that is constructed from …

Process systems engineering (PSE), as the name suggests, emphasizes an approach to
understanding the behavior of systems as a whole with a view to improving decision-making …
