ECS/ProcessExpert is a high-level control and optimisation solution for complex process such as pyro processes. Control optimisation is performed using the ECS/ProcessExpert advanced capabilities that are specifically tailored to meet the individual user requirements.
The control and optimisation system is based on the well-known industrial platform ECS (Expert Control & Supervision) system specially developed for supervisory control, monitoring and reporting functions.
Depending on the application type, advanced expert system techniques such as fuzzy-logic, neural-networks, Statistical Process Control (SPC) and Model-based Predictive Control (MPC) are used in the ECS/ProcessExpert application modules to enable hybrid control schemes to meet the requirements of the specific process control issues. These modules will perform complex and steady evaluations of process conditions, and execute adequate control actions on a more frequent and reliable basis than human operators. Being an open tool-box, ECS/ProcessExpert allows the implement solutions to be specifically tailored to the needs of each plant by incorporating the best control knowledge of all. The ECS/ProcessExpert system will assist the operators on their control tasks on a 24-hour basis.
