In process flow control, there are many factors affecting variability, but the greatest contributor is the control valve’s performance. Issues associated with control valves, such as dead band, ...

Scale-up involves increasing pump sizes, reactor volumes, and flow rates—but the process control logic and system ...

Learning the basics can ease loop tuning frustration and ensure stability. During plant operations, it seems that tuning control loops is an ongoing task, which can be a continual frustration to ...

Compressible fluid flow through control valves will inevitably cause some form of flow-induced vibration in the fluid system. Identifying the type and cause of the vibration requires detective work.

Just over a decade ago, an article titled, "Advanced Control Strategies Move into the Field" (Control, October 2008), highlighted three evolving trends in the process control world that would "make ...

The CS Series of process-control modules provides PID loop control of any process without using a PLC. Modules offer control of temperature, flow, and pressure. Single and dualloop temperature modules ...

Coal-fired power plants can significantly improve wet limestone scrubbing with advanced process control. One optimization system implemented at a Japanese facility utilized enhanced regulatory control ...

CHINO, Calif. & TULSA, Okla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Harrington Process Solutions (“Harrington”), a leading distributor of industrial flow control products in the United States, today announced the ...

Aim: To demonstrate the potential of in-line nanoparticle size measurements using the NanoFlowSizer (NFS) as a PAT method. To achieve real-time process control by establishing automated regulation of ...
