Cascade (Computer) Control. This is the application area that is perfectly suited for computers because in cascade control several process variables are evaluated before a decision about a necessary change is made. Take for example the aforementioned burning-zone temperature-fuel rate, closed-loop control concept. In this single loop the fuel ...
Cascade control is a technique used to enable processes with long lags to be controlled with the fastest possible response to process disturbances including setpoint changes, while still minimizing the potential for overshoot.
A first principles model of a cement kiln is used to control and optimize the burning of clinker in the cement production process. The model considers heat transfer between a gas and a feed state via convection and radiation. Furthermore, it contains effects such as chemical reactions, feed transport, energy losses and energy input. A model predictive controller is used …
Supervisory control of the kiln process is thus in many respects a demanding task. Lime kilns are therefore frequently one of the last areas in a pulp mill to be automated and most of the kilns have been and are still operated without a supervisory con trol system. The absence of closed loop controls results in inefficiencies in energy
The positive effects of pressure control in rotary kilns at TATA Sponge Iron Limited (TSIL) are demonstrated by actual plant trials. 2. IMPLEMENTATION OF PRESSURE CONTROL

Hello All! I have a PLC5 which is controlling a cocurrent drying process through a rotary kiln. I believe the control stategy of using an outlet to inlet air temperature ratio to control finished product temperature is a little strange. I would like to first try to explain the operation of the control strategy, then ask my question.

In this work an advanced control system design aimed to the improvement of economic benefits and control performances of a cement rotary kiln located in an Italian cement plant is discussed.
ROTARY KILN CONSTRUCTION While FEECO rotary kilns are custom designed around the material to be processed, in general, there are some standard components that serve as the basic design of a rotary kiln. The diagram shown on page 8 illustrates some of the common standard components found on a basic direct-fired kiln. A diagram of an
It involves a primary (or master) control loop and one or more secondary (or slave) control loops. Consider a factory where a machine is used to fill bottles with liquid products. The primary control loop could be set to maintain the desired filling level in each bottle. A secondary control loop could control the flow rate of the liquid into ...
The quality of sponge iron produced in the coal-fired rotary kilns at TATA Steel Long Products Limited (TSLPL) is permitted to vary in a small window of 80-83% Fe.
The cement industry includes energy-intensive processes, e.g., clinker rotary kilns and clinker grate coolers. Clinker is obtained through chemical and physical reactions in a rotary kiln from raw meal; these reactions also involve combustion processes. The grate cooler is located downstream of the clinker rotary kiln with the purpose of suitably cooling the clinker. …

All the researches that were done basing on kiln control aim at improving the kiln performance by process parameter control. In developing
Rotary kilns are designed for burning pulverized raw meal ground from the raw mill to produce clinker. Rotary kiln have a lot of complex characteristics like large delay, strong coupling, non-linearity and time variance, so the control of rotary kiln has always been a challenge. There has been extensive research in the control of kiln process.

Pressure Control in Compressors Cascade control is also used in compressor control systems, where the primary loop might maintain a desired pressure, and the secondary loop controls compressor speed. By regulating speed, the system can respond to load changes more quickly, maintaining stable pressure even with fluctuating demand.
