Abstract

This paper describes the design, implementation and operation of an integrated system to support: 1) the on-line operation of batch plants; 2) the off-line development and testing of new operation and control procedures. The system integrates with an industrial control system a generic simulator, a generic supervisory control system, a planning and scheduling system, and model based control functions. The functionality and use of this system are demonstrated on a complex batch pilot plant. The system greatly facilitates the rapid development, testing and commissioning of new production control schemes, new product recipes and new software/application products.
