Although control-oriented applications typically need fast interrupt response and an ability to efficiently process bit-level control and status information, signal-processing applications require ...

The process control and instrumentation minor emphasizes developing skills and knowledge in theory, software and in the field. Students graduate ready to solve complex control problems in the chemical ...

In this article, as in industry, advanced process control (APC) refers primarily to multi-variable control. Multivariable control means adjusting multiple single-loop controllers in unison, to meet ...

This asynchronous course addresses the basic theory behind Statistical Process Control (SPC), a method used in monitoring and controlling the quality of a process through statistical analysis to ...

At some point in our lives, we have dropped a drinking glass or knocked over a glass-blown knickknack, only to watch it hit the floor and shatter into pieces. We learn from any early age that glass is ...

In a recent article in the Journal of Chromatography A, lead authors Alexander Armstrong, Stephen Goldrick, PhD, and Kieran Horry, of University College London, write that “novel control strategies ...

Aim: To demonstrate the potential of in-line nanoparticle size measurements using the NanoFlowSizer (NFS) as a PAT method. To achieve real-time process control by establishing automated regulation of ...

Today’s common bioprocessing technologies do not efficiently develop complex biologics like cell and gene therapy and mRNA products. The at-line monitoring, off-line analytics, and legacy control ...

Coal-fired power plants can significantly improve wet limestone scrubbing with advanced process control. One optimization system implemented at a Japanese facility utilized enhanced regulatory control ...

In process automation, an alarm is defined as an audible and/or visible means of indicating to the operator an equipment malfunction, process deviation, or abnormal condition requiring an operator ...
