Matrices of transfer functions have been developed for the concentration dynamics of the rectifying and stripping sections of distillation columns. Responses of the model concentrations to fluid flow changes through the column are of first-order lag form. The parameters of the transfer functions are

Terminal composition control of a pilot scale binary distillation column operated under the control of an IBM 1800 digital computer has been studied for disturbances in feed flow rate. Conventional two point control, whereby the overhead composition is controlled by reflux flow rate and bottom compo
The dynamic behaviour of binary distillation in the vicinity of an equilibrium state is investigated. The genera1 linear state equations and the principles of solution are given. These are applied to a more detailed study of a theoretical nonlinear process for which the response of compositions to s
An application of nonlinear feedback theory to the control of a binary distillation column is presented. The nonlinear control structure proposed allows the output of the process to be decoupled from external disturbances while it follows, asymptotically, a given trajectory. The internal stability o
