Abstract
This paper presents a study on the control of a fluidized bed catalytic reactor. In this study, the model reference adaptative control algorithm with independent tracking and regulation objectives as presented by Landau-Lozano (1981) has been investigated. The purpose of the control is to maintain the temperature of the reactor as near as possible to a desired set value (490°C). Some of the heat produced as a result of the exothermal reaction tacking place between propylene, ammonia and oxygen is carried away by a ventilator. The control action is based on a simple mathematical lower order with time varying unknown parameters. This method of control results in a significantly improved control for both servo and regulatory control.
