Abstract

The virgin olive oil elaboration process (VOOEP) is an industrial process whose control relies heavily in the knowledge of experts. In this paper, the basis of a fuzzy expert system for the determination of the set points of the VOOEP which uses inputs from the expert operator is presented, and a system is constructed and validated based on the knowledge of expert operators of the process. The expert system is built based on the decomposition of the original problem into three sub-problems, deriving a sub-system for each of them. Besides, a notion of maximum attainable quality estimate and a paste preparation variable are introduced.
