Course details

This course provides a comprehensive understanding of distillation column control systems used in process and chemical industries. It covers the basic principles of distillation, column operation, and process variables such as temperature, pressure, level, and flow. Participants learn how control loops are designed and applied to maintain stable column operation. The course explains reflux control, reboiler control, condenser control, and feed flow regulation. It also introduces PID control strategies and controller tuning for distillation processes. Participants gain knowledge of pressure and temperature control methods for maintaining product quality. The course covers level control of reflux drums and column bottoms to ensure safe and continuous operation. Advanced concepts such as cascade control, ratio control, feed-forward control, and inferential control are also discussed. Practical troubleshooting approaches for common distillation control problems are included. The course helps professionals improve process stability, energy efficiency, product separation, and overall column performance.
