Traditionally, process design and control system design are
performed sequentially. It is only recently displayed that a
simultaneous approach to the design and control leads to
significant economic benefits and improved dynamic performance
during plant operation.
Extensive research in issues such as 'interactions of design and
control', 'analysis and design of plant wide control systems',
'integrated methods for design and control' has resulted in
impressive advances and significant new technologies that have
enriched the variety of instruments available for the design
engineer in her endeavour to design and operate new processes. The
field of integrated process design and control has reached a
maturity level that mingles the best from process knowledge and
understanding and control theory on one side, with the best from
numerical analysis and optimisation on the other. Direct
implementation of integrated methods should soon become the
mainstream design procedure.
Within this context 'The Integration of Process Design and
Control', bringing together the developments in a variety of topics
related to the integrated design and control, will be a real asset
for design engineers, practitioners and researchers. Although the
individual chapters reach a depth of analysis close to the frontier
of current research status, the structure of the book and the
autonomous nature of the chapters make the book suitable for a
newcomer in the area.
The book comprises four distinct parts:
Part A: Process characterization and controllability analysis
Part B: Integrated process design and control ⊣
Methods
Part C: Plant wide interactions of design and control
Part D: Integrated process design and control ⊣
Extensions
By the end of the book, the reader will have developed a commanding
comprehension of the main aspects of integrated design and control,
the ability to critically assess the key characteristics and
elements related to the interactions between design and control and
the capacity to implement the new technology in practice.
* This book brings together the latest developments in a variety of
topics related to integrated design and control.
* It is a valuable asset for design engineers, practitioners and
researchers.
* The structure of the book and the nature of its chapters also
make it suitable for a newcomer to the field.
