  2. Control Issues • Difficulties with traditional controllers • Purity and reactant conversion • Multiple steady states • Limitations of traditional feedback controllers • Advanced control schemes • Dynamic matrix control method • Output feedback control scheme for some high index DAEs • Nonlinear model predictive control strategy

  3. Control Issues • Investigation of MPC control strategy • Performance dependence on model complexity • Problem formulation • On-line implementation not addressed • Computational time • Experimental validation of proposed control schemes

  4. Models of Different Complexity • Equilibrium versus rate-based dynamic models • Physical properties • Hydraulic models • Liquid holdup • Vapor holdup • Vapor pressure drop • Catalyst description • Diffusion limitations

  5. Validation and Behavior Analysis • Experimental data • Steady-state • Dynamic • Study the effect of modeling assumptions on the overall model behavior • Computational time • Response accuracy
