Advanced control of propylene polimerizations in slurry reactors

The objective of this work is to develop a strategy of nonlinear model predictive control for industrial slurry reactors of propylene polymerizations. The controlled variables are the melt index (polymer quality) and the amount of unreacted monomer (productivity). The model used in the controller pr...
