Dynamics and Control of Chemical Reactors, Distillation Columns and Batch

This volume represents important developments in the control, modelling and dynamics of the three main areas of chemical engineering: chemical reactors, distillation columns and batch processes. All three topics are covered by a plenary survey paper, reflecting the diversity of information available and its relevance to process designers, who need to keep up to date with opportunities and limitations of modern process control, and control scientists who need to obtain realistic cases for research in methods and techniques.
