Applied Process Control - Efficient Problem Solving

Bridging theory and practice, this book contains over 200 practical exercises and their solutions to train problem-solving abilities in process control.
The problems were developed by the author during his many years of teaching at university and are kept brief, taken from the fields of instrumentation, modeling, plant control, control strategy design and stability of control. The algorithm flows and codes, which are mostly based on MATLABi??, are given in many cases and allow for easy translation into applications.
Since the text is structured according to "Applied Process Control: Essential Methods", all the necessary background information on the underlying methods can be easily and quickly found in this accompanying book.

Michael Mulholland is Professor Emeritus of the University of KwaZulu-Natal (South Africa) since 2012. In 1977, he started his career as senior technical officer at AECI, an explosives and specialty chemicals group located in South Africa. In 1982 he became lecturer and later Professor at the University of KwaZulu-Natal (South Africa), a position he held until his retirement. During his time at the university he was the author of several consulting reports and manuals for the chemical and petroleum industry. He is member of the South African Institution of Chemical Engineers, the Institution of Chemical Engineers (United Kingdom) and the British Engineering Council (United Kingdom). Having worked in industry and with over 30 years of teaching experience in process control, Mulholland exactly knows what a graduate process engineer needs to know to work effectively in industry.
