Chemical Process Control  (English, Paperback, Stephanopoulos George)

A thorough overview of all aspects of chemical process control - process modeling, dynamic analyses of processing systems, a large variety of control schemes, synthesis of multivariable control configurations for single units and complete chemical plants, analysis and design of digital computer control systems.

Salient Features

• Emphasizes problem formulation, analysis of posed control problems, and the synthesis and evaluation of alternative control systems.
• Provides a complete understanding of control design and implementation rather than a mere list of mechanistic tools.
• Discusses both controller design concepts and hardware elements needed for practical implementation of various control schemes.
• Emphasizes controllers' actions and their relative advantages and drawbacks.
