Advanced control systems work by integrating various technologies such as sensors, actuators, and control algorithms. These components collect and analyze data from the catalytic process in real-time. The system then uses this data to adjust process parameters, ensuring optimal operating conditions. Key technologies involved include:
- Sensors: Measure variables like temperature, pressure, and concentration of reactants/products. - Actuators: Execute changes in the system based on control signals. - Control Algorithms: Use mathematical models to predict and correct deviations from desired performance.
