摘要: Time optimal monomer and reactor temperature set-point profiles were computed implemented experimentally for the control of co- polymer composition minimization reaction time in emulsion copolymerization systems. Iterative Dynamic Programming (IDP) was used off- line calculation profiles. This ap- proach can deal with constrained optimization systems described by complex mathematical models, as those needed copolymerization. The procedure applied to vinyl acetate / butyl acrylate under industrial-like conditions, which includes safety constraints normally found operation large-scale reactors. dynamics heat exchange system also taken into account model. trajectories obtained IDP a jacketed automated tem- perature monomers feed flow rates. real- implementation successfully carried out resulting significant re- duction production ho- mogeneous copolymer composition.
