Abstract

Advanced layer-based control strategies, such as LP+DMC, have a high degree of maturity with excellent results in large industrial applications. An alternative to this approach are control strategies that solve the dynamic and economic problem in a single layer, known as economic predictive control (EMPC), which has shown promising results. However, for large industrial applications, there are few comparative studies evaluating its effectiveness, compared to traditional strategies. This work presents a comparative study of an LP-DMC layered control strategy, with an EMPC controller, in an industrial application of a natural gas processing unit.
