    The outcomeAfter this course the students will be able to: ; - Work in automated plants of pharmaceutical industry. ; - Specify and define the necessary instrumentation for control systems in pharmaceutical industry. ; - Work in specialized teams for designing control systems for pharmaceutical industry. ;
    Contents
    Contents of lecturesSpecific issues of control of pharmaceutical processes (batch and semi-batch processes, CIP and SIP, demands regarding sanitary conditions); dynamics of characteristic processes for pharmaceutical industry. ; 2. Advanced systems of process control based on feedback systems: cascade control, selective control, split-range control, feedback-feedforward control. ; 4. Digital control systems: analog and digital signals, discrete dynamic models, discrete controllers, digital equipment in control systems. ; 5. Practical aspects: specific applications of control systems for some typical processes in pharmaceutical industry; different levels of digital control (monitoring and data acquisition, DDC, SCADA, DSC). ;
    Contents of exercisesExercises in a computer laboratory, using MATLAB and its additions: Control System Toolbox, Simbolic Math Toolbox and Simulink. Two project assignments.
