2019 AIChE Annual Meeting

Session: Process Modeling and Control Applications I

The session will include presentations that report on novel applications of process control techniques to a wide range of chemical engineering systems. Submissions describing industrial implementations and the associated challenges that were encountered are strongly encouraged. Applications to unconventional systems which present unique challenges are also of great interest.
