Process and Control Design for a Novel Chemical Heat Exchange Reactor
(2006) Reglermöte 2006- Abstract
- A new chemical reactor, the Open Plate Reactor (OPR), is being developed by Alfa Laval AB. It has a very flexible configuration with
distributed inlet ports, cooling zones and internal sensors. This
gives the OPR improved control capabilities compared to standard
chemical reactors in addition to better heat transfer capacity.
In this paper, we address the relationship between
the process design, the number of actuators used and how to use these actuators
in feedback control to be able to use the full potential of the
OPR. The performance of the OPR can be significantly improved by using
additional inlet ports and cooling zones. However, this may also
require... (More) - A new chemical reactor, the Open Plate Reactor (OPR), is being developed by Alfa Laval AB. It has a very flexible configuration with

improvement in presence of model uncertainty and disturbances. (Less)
