✦ Synopsis

This paper is concerned with the control of important polymerization properties in a batch solution polymerization reactor of methylmethacrylate. Properties such as weight average molecular weight or monomer conversion are controlled using an advanced adaptive pole-assignment controller whose performance is compared to that of a generalized minimum variance controller and a fixed gain PID controller. Simulation and experimental results on the batch polymer reactor demonstrate the need for fast on-line measurements in the polvmerization industry as well as the usefulness of this adaptive poleassignment control algorithm. _ _ CES

A nonlinear control strategy--input/output linearizing by nonlinear state feedback--is suitable for trajectory tracking in batch processes. But based closely on the system model, the controller is sensitive to model parameter errors, which limit its application. In this paper, a technique of adaptiv

Although reactant addition induces unavoidable temperature changes in semi-batch reactors, it is shown that adaptive-predictive techniques may offer a means of balancing them successfully. To this end, appropriate data filtering must be integrated to the estimation algorithm, so that parameters rema
