Simple, explicit and physically intuitive Feedforward and Feedback control policies are designed for Fluidized Catalytic Cracking Processes. The Feedforward (FF) control algorithm compensates for changes in the feed rate and feed coking tendency by the use of the air flow and catalyst circulation rates as control variables to maintain the conversion and the reactor temperature at fixed levels. Through steady state and dynamic simulations the FF controller is shown to be very effective. To improve the dynamic response of the process and to account for the process/model mismatch a feedback (FB) controller is also designed to complement the FF action. The FB action is designed by use of the transformation related to the physical modes which correspond to the extensive variables of the process. It is shown that the required control structure consists of two loops. One uses the air flow rate to control the total sensible heat content of the reactor and regenerator solid phases. The other loop controls the regenerator enthalpy by changes in the catalyst circulation rate. The air flow rate controller includes an integral action to avoid reactor temperature offsets, while the catalyst circulation rate controller requires a nonlinear static observer to predict the coke concentration on the regenerated catalyst from dense bed and flue gas regenerator temperatures. The performance of the controller for changes on the oil feed rate, caking tendency of the feed, as well as for reactor temperature set point changes is faster and smoother than Kurihara's scheme. |
