Abstract
The use of heuristics has become commonplace in the design of a chemical process, but only rarely have heuristics been published to characterize the trade-offs for optimum steady-state control. Evaluation of a number of case studies has led to operating heuristics for an important class of reaction systems and common equipment types. Often, these heuristics suggest a logical set of control structure elements based on process economics.
