Effectively controlling the drum level in an industrial boiler helps to maximize overall energy efficiency. When the drum level varies it can not only impact boiler efficiency, but overall reliability due to unplanned shutdowns. Emerson's Mark Coughran shared a story...
Hydrogen fuel technology has reached a stage where it is past the prototype phase, and the industry is now looking to scale up. The fuel cell market, for instance, is forecast to grow at a robust 45.3% compound annual growth rate between 2022 and 2029, with projections of a market value reaching $17.88 billion. However, the potential growth of the industry is not guaranteed. There is still much work to be done, including increasing fueling stations and reducing the cost of producing green hydrogen. To mitigate risks and help hydrogen technology mature, strong partnerships between innovators and automation experts are needed. Automation experts can help hydrogen OEMs and end-users scale up capacity to meet market demands, keep projects on time and in budget, monitor hydrogen application performance, and ensure safety in volatile environments. With the help of automation experts, the hydrogen market can scale up and make a significant contribution towards achieving ambitious climate goals.
Last year, some controversy broke out in the process automation and control community about the use of Lambda tuning for proportional-integral-derivative (PID)-based control. In a post, Lambda Tuning-Yeah or Neah?, we offered a differing view to a Control magazine...
Today's Modeling and Control blog post, PID Feedback Control, by Emerson's Terry Blevins, describes the impact unmeasured disturbances can have on a process. Trying to manually control these disturbances is difficult, given the increasing complexity of process...
Emerson’s Greg McMillan will present Control Strategies to Improve Reactor Performance at the October 11-13, 2023, Mary Kay O’Connor Safety & Risk Conference. Greg will share several examples from his book, Advances in Reactor Measurement and Control.
Le marché mondial de l’hydrogène se trouve à un moment très excitant. Ayant largement dépassé le stade des prototypes de piles à combustible, d’électrolyseurs (les unités qui séparent l’eau en molécules d’hydrogène et d’oxygène) et de stations de ravitaillement, l’industrie est incitée à passer à l’échelle supérieure. Le fait de se concentrer sur une seule partie de ce marché, la pile à combustible, démontre l’opportunité : Le taux de croissance annuel composé (TCAC) du marché mondial des piles à hydrogène devrait atteindre 45,3 % entre 2022 et 2029, avec des projections d’une valeur de marché atteignant 17,88 milliards de dollars au cours de cette période.
Greg McMillan and Peter Morgan’s recent ControlGlobal.com article is titled Deadtime compensation opportunities and realities. The article explains the benefits of implementing controller integral action by using filtered, positive feedback.
