Plantwide Control of Modern Chemical Processes from a Network Perspective

复杂工厂越来越多地出现在现代澳大利亚加工工业中，特别是在矿物加工，石化和可再生能源部门。这些工厂代表着巨大的资本成本，并以非常大的规模生产产品。这些过程的控制和操作的改进可以潜在地提供显著的经济效益。这项研究的预期成果是一种有效的方法，以提高运营安全性，效率，产品质量和制造灵活性，帮助建立一个更高效和环保意识的澳大利亚化学工业。该项目还将提高澳大利亚在先进过程控制和管理前沿研究领域的科学声誉。

Complex plants increasingly appear in modern Australian process industries, particularly in mineral processing, petrochemical and renewable energies sectors. These plants represent vast capital costs and manufacture products at a very large scale. Improvement in control and operation of these processes can potentially provide significant economic benefits. The expected outcome of this research is an effective approach to improve operational safety, efficiency, product quality and manufacturing flexibility, helping to build a more efficient and environmental conscious Australian chemical industry. This project will also enhance Australia's scientific reputation in the frontier research area of advanced process control and management.
