Nonlinear model-predictive control of a polymerization reactor

 

Nonlinear model-predictive control has been implemented on a polymerization reactor in the laboratory in cooperation with BASF SE. The aims of the control strategy are to reduce batch times, to be able to target different product specifications and to deal with large disturbances.
