Integrated Process Modeling, Advanced Control and Data Analytics for Optimizing Polyolefin Manufacturing

Integrated Process Modeling, Advanced Control and Data Analytics for Optimizing Polyolefin Manufacturing
Detailed  resource on the “Why,” “What,” and “How” of integrated process  modeling, advanced control and data analytics explained via hands-on  examples and workshops for optimizing polyolefin manufacturing.

Integrated  Process Modeling, Advanced Control and Data Analytics for Optimizing  Polyolefin Manufacturing discusses, as well as demonstrates, the  optimization of polyolefin production by covering topics from polymer  process modeling and advanced process control to data analytics and  machine learning, and sustainable design and industrial practice. The  text also covers practical problems, handling of real data streams,  developing the right level of detail, and tuning models to the available  data, among other topics, to allow for easy translation of concepts  into practice.

Written by two highly qualified authors,  Integrated Process Modeling, Advanced Control and Data Analytics for  Optimizing Polyolefin Manufacturing includes information on:
Segment-based  modeling of polymer processes; selection of thermodynamic methods;  estimation of physical properties for polymer process modelingReactor  modeling, convergence tips and data-fit tool; free radical  polymerization (LDPE, EVA and PS), Ziegler-Natta polymerization (HDPE,  PP, LLPDE, and EPDM) and ionic polymerization (SBS rubber)Improved  polymer process operability and control through steady-state and dynamic  simulation modelsModel-predictive control of polyolefin processes and  applications of multivariate statistics and machine learning to  optimizing polyolefin manufacturing
Integrated Process Modeling,  Advanced Control and Data Analytics for Optimizing Polyolefin  Manufacturing enables readers to make full use of advanced computer  models and latest data analytics and machine learning tools for  optimizing polyolefin manufacturing, making it an essential resource for  undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, and new and  experienced engineers involved in the polyolefin industry.
