Abstract/Summary
Inprocess oral contribution to ACOWUG 2022 held in June 2022. This presentation introduces the Digital Twins and the particular use case of creating inferentials for APC. Several cases studies are presented for inferentials implemented in different types of distillation columns with no online analyzer or problematic online analyzers. It is also shown how Digital Twins can be used in different ways (Steady-State vs Dynamics, Offline vs Online) to create the inferentials and other relevant information for the APC controller.
