Abstract :
Covers the application of fuzzy control to a perlite plant (similar to a cement plant). It details the development of the fuzzy control from an initial strategy to the one presently in use. Some simulation results are presented which confirm the practical observations that, for this plant, fuzzy control is more robust than the equivalent PID system.<>
