  • Abstract
    Nonlinear process-model based control (NPMBC), model predictive control (MPC) using Dynamic Matrix Control Corporation´s DMC and an advanced conventional control (ACC) are compared for dual-composition control on a lab-scale methanol-water distillation column. Both setpoint tracking and disturbance rejection performances are evaluated for unconstrained control
