Multivariable model predictive control of a catalytic reverse flow reactor

Multivariable model predictive control of a catalytic reverse flow reactor

This paper is devoted to the multiple input multiple output (MIMO) model predictive control (MPC) of a catalytic reverse flow reactor (RFR). The RFR aims to reduce, by catalytic reaction, the amount of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released in the atmosphere. The peculiarity of this process is that the gas flow inside the reactor is periodically reversed in order to trap the heat released d...

Destruction of volatile organic compounds by the optimal multivariable control of a catalytic reverse flow reactor

"Destruction of volatile organic compounds by the optimal multivariable control of a catalytic reverse flow reactor", Summary This paper aims to compare 2 optimal control laws for a catalytic reverse flow reactor (RFR), which topic has not often been tackled. The RFR aims to destruct volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which are noxious products and are the source of a lot of problems: pollution...

Multivariable Control of a Catalytic Reverse Flow Reactor: Comparison between LQR and MPC Approaches

This paper is devoted to the MIMO control of the catalytic reverse flow reactor (RFR) which aims to reduce the amount of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released in the atmosphere. The RFR is characterized by the periodic reversal of the gas flow that aims to trap the heat of reaction inside the RFR. The control issue is to confine the hot spot temperature inside an envelope (in order to ensu...
