- Title
Experimental Investigation of Decentralized Process Control for Reactive Dividing‐Wall Columns.
- Authors
Egger, Lisa S.; Fieg, Georg
- Abstract
The reactive dividing‐wall column (RDWC) presents a highly integrated process that enables significant reductions in investment costs and energy consumption. However, the high degree of integration of this apparatus causes numerous interactions between kinetics, vapor‐liquid equilibrium, and mass transfer. To ensure a reliable operation of the RDWC, suitable control schemes need to be developed and experimentally validated. A decentralized control scheme for the RDWC is presented and for the first time experimentally investigated on an RDWC pilot plant. A comparison of experimental and simulated data is carried out and shows good agreement.
