This paper proposes a fuzzy multiloop control design for a distillation column. The interaction that occurs between the strategic distillation column variables, which represent a major constraint to construct the rules base when the fuzzy multivariable control of the distillation control is considered, are reduced by introducing a compensator in ca...

Distillation columns constitute a significant fraction of the capital invested in the refineries around the world; their control requires a major part of the total operating cost of chemical processes, if the used strategy is not adequate. This article presents the application of optimal fuzzy control to reduce the energy consumption of a Benzene-T...

... Relative gain method can be used for variable pairing. [15] Control performance of the column is successfully improved by using predictive control, [16][17][18] robust controls, [19,20] and so on. [21,22] Ethylene column, a typical for distillation columns, is characterized by more complicated structures and stricter product quality than common distillation columns. ...
... In practice, there are many control problems associated with a guarantee of finding outputs in given sets. For example, it is required to maintain the frequency and output voltage of electric generators within specified bounds in the electric power network [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] or pressure and flow rate at the wellhead in a given band when controlling the formation pressure stabilization process [8][9][10], etc. Violating these constraints during operation may degrade the performance and lead to system instability. Therefore, guarantee of the desired control performance, including transient and steady-state performance, in the practical systems is one of the key criteria in the synthesis of automatic control systems in past decades. ...
