The control systems commonly used in the process industry are based on the single-loop and multi-loop techniques described in Control Loop Foundation – Batch and Continuous Processes. Some combination of these techniques is often required to meet product specification and plant throughput targets. The application examples included in Chapter 16 of Control Loop Foundation are …

Process Characterization – Inverse Process Response
Process characterization is the identification of the dynamic responses of a process to changes in its inputs. As part of the chapter on process characterization in Chapter 9 of Control Loop Foundation, we address inverse process response. A few processes exhibit a behavior where for a step change in input, the output initially changes in …
