    The goal1. Extending the students’ knowledge on process dynamics and classical methods of process control. ; 2. Learning about advanced and modern methods of process control. ; 3. Recognizing the significance of knowing the process dynamics in designing modern control systems for chemical industries. ; 4. Learning the mathematical tools and the necessary instrumentation for digital control systems ;
    The outcomeQualifying the students for: ; - Working in automated plants of process industries. ; - Specifying the instrumentation for control systems. ; - Participating in specialized teams for designing control systems for process industries ; - Applying the knowledgeof process dynamics and control in designing chemical processes. ;
    Contents
    Contents of lecturesDynamics of some typical equipment in chemical industries (chemical reactors, columns, heat exchangers etc.) ; 2. Advanced systems of process control based on feedback systems: cascade control, selective control, split-range control, feedback-feedforward control. ; 3. Modern approaches to control in process industries: inferential and adaptive control, multivariable control, model-predictive control. ; 4. Digital control systems: analog and digital signals, discrete dynamic models, discrete controllers, digital equipment in control systems. ; 5. Practical aspects: process and instrumentation diagrams for control of some typical equipment in chemical industries; plant-wide control; 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.
