The workshop
is a meeting of those interested in applying Advanced Process Control
technology to improve performance of the process industries. Practical
installation experience and results are presented for discussion.
Plant operations
today are faced with ever-increasing pressure to improve efficiency, quality
and productivity. Without making fundamental changes to their production
processes, improvement can usually be made with the application of advanced
control technology. Using modern computer
hardware, software and innovative techniques, application engineers are
able to collect real time and historical data on their processes. Data
analysis, modeling and simulation provide a better understanding of the
dynamics of process behavior. Once the process characteristics are accurately
identified, the options for applying suitable control methodology are
no longer limited to conventional control techniques.
