Learning control for batch thermal sterilization of canned foods.
A control technique based on Reinforcement Learning is proposed for the thermal sterilization of canned foods. The proposed controller has the objective of ensuring a given degree of sterilization during Heating (by providing a minimum temperature inside the cans during a given time) and then a smooth Cooling, avoiding sudden pressure variations. For this, three automatic control valves are man...
متن کاملOn-line Quality Control of Non-linear Batch Systems: Application to the Thermal Processing of Canned Foods
The recently developed Q-PI approach for quality control of linear continuous systems is extended to non-linear batch systems. The new control law contains proportional and integral terms with which the operators are intimately familiar. It is shown that control quality may be improved or costs reduced, consistent with the process specifications, by adjusting the tuning constants of the control...
متن کاملA state constrained optimal control problem related to the sterilization of canned foods
Al~traet--The industrial sterilization of canned foods is a process in which there usually occurs a degradation of the nutrients and a deterioration of the qualitative properties due to the temperature to which the food is overexposed in order to assure sterilization. In this work we face the problem using optimal control methods. Linear constraints on the control and nonlinear ones on the stat...

متن کاملCombined Irradiation-Heat Processing of Canned Foods
The quantity of ionizing radiations needed to sterilize canned foods generally impairs both their nutritive qualities and palatability (Hannan, 1955; Schultz et al., 1956). However, thermal processes also lower these qualities in canned foods (Stumbo, 1949). In both instances, the extent of damage increases with the severity of the treatments. Consequently, the heat processing schedules that ar...
