Use of a procedural model in the design of production control for a polymerization plant

Process manufacturing has a number of characteristics that make it different from other types of manufacturing. These characteristics are reflected in the design of process production control. This article addresses some features of process manufacturing that have to be taken into account during the design of a production control system in the process industries and gives an example of the design of a process production control system based on production performance indicators. The description of a model of a case study polymerization production plant is presented. Based on this model, a control structure framework is proposed, which makes it possible to automate part of the manager’s work. In this study, the model-based controller is introduced to the control structure.
