  • Abstract
    Fluid Catalytic Cracking Units in oil refineries are prime candidates for implementation of advanced control functions for both operational and economic reasons. This paper discusses an actual advanced control implementation project on a commercial unit. Three specific advanced control techniques are emphasized-multivariable predictive control, performance adaptive control, and on-line optimization.
