Abstract

Due to highly nonlinear, complexity, variability and uncertainty that batch polymerization processes involve, the control of batch polymerization processes offers attractive and challenging problems for control community. This paper introduces the characteristics of the processes and reviews the progress in the computer control and application of advanced process control for batch polymerization reactors in recent years. Special attention is focused on predictive control, adaptive control and fuzzy control. It is shown that there is a huge gap between industry and research practices.
