Inhaltsangabe

Gives a real world explanation of how to analyze and troubleshoot a process control system in a batch process plant
• Explains how to analyze the requirements for controlling a batch process, develop the control logic to meet these requirements, and troubleshoot the process controls in batch processes
• Presents three categories of batch processes (cyclical batch, multigrade facilities, and flexible batch) and examines the differences in the control requirements in each
• Examines various concepts of a product recipe and what its nature must be in a flexible batch facility
• Approaches the subject from the process perspective, with emphasis on the advantages of using structured logic in the automation of all but the simplest batch processes.
• Discusses the flow of information starting at the plant floor and continuing through various levels of the control logic up to the corporate IT level

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Dr. Cecil Smith has over 35 years experience in process control, and his expertise encompasses virtually every control technology being applied in industrial production facilities.  His primary focus is on designing a control strategy for a process and then commissioning the controls, that is, the process aspects as opposed to systems aspects.  However, he is proficient with both DCS's, PLC's, PC-based controls, and single-loop microprocessor-based controls, and is capable of resolving both process and system problems.
Dr. Smith has equally extensive experience in teaching continuing education courses for practicing engineers on various aspects of process control and instrumentation.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

This book gives a real world explanation of how to analyze the requirements for controlling a batch process, develop the control logic to meet these requirements, and troubleshoot the process controls in batch processes such as those used extensively in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, coatings, electronic materials etc. industries. Whereas most other books on this subject originate from the control equipment manufacturer circles, this book approaches the subject from the process perspective, with emphasis on the advantages of using structured logic in the automation of all but the simplest batch processes.
