Description
A closed-loop universal multivariable optimizer is designed to enhance both the performance and quality of Model Predictive Control (MPC) systems. This optimizer utilizes data from Excel files sourced from Dynamic Matrix Control (DMC) by Aspen Tech, Robust Model Predictive Control Technology (RMPCT) from Honeywell, or Predict Pro from Emerson to develop and refine accurate models for various multivariable-controller variable (MV-CV) pairs. This innovative optimization technology eliminates the need for step tests typically required by Aspen Tech and Honeywell, operating entirely within the time domain while remaining user-friendly, compact, and efficient. Given that Model Predictive Controls (MPC) can encompass tens or even hundreds of dynamic models, the possibility of incorrect models is a significant concern. The presence of inaccurate dynamic models in MPCs leads to bias, which is identified as model prediction error, manifesting as discrepancies between predicted signals and actual measurements from sensors. COLUMBO serves as a powerful tool to enhance the accuracy of Model Predictive Control (MPC) models, effectively utilizing either open-loop or fully closed-loop data to ensure optimal performance. By addressing the potential for errors in dynamic models, COLUMBO aims to significantly improve overall control system effectiveness.
Description
Imubit’s artificial intelligence platform provides instantaneous, closed-loop optimization of processes in heavy industries by integrating a dynamic process simulator, a reinforcement-learning neural controller, and performance monitoring dashboards. The dynamic simulator utilizes extensive historical plant data and is informed by fundamental principles to create a virtual representation of actual processes, facilitating what-if analyses regarding variable interactions, changes in constraints, and adjustments in operational strategies. Meanwhile, the reinforcement-learning controller, which has been trained offline using millions of trial-and-error scenarios, is employed to continuously optimize control variables, thereby enhancing profit margins while adhering to safety constraints. Real-time dashboards monitor the availability of the model, user engagement, and operational uptime, while also providing interactive visual representations of boundary conditions, operational limits, and trends in key performance indicators. Applications of this technology include synchronizing economic strategies with real-time operational data and identifying instances of process deterioration, ensuring enhanced efficiency and safety across operations. This comprehensive approach empowers industries to adapt swiftly and effectively to changing conditions.
