    Neural networks, which were initially designed to imitate human neurons, work to store, analyze, and identify patterns in input readings to generate output signals. In chemical engineering, neural net...Neural networks, which were initially designed to imitate human neurons, work to store, analyze, and identify patterns in input readings to generate output signals. In chemical engineering, neural networks are used to predict the ouputs of systems such as distillation columns and CSTRs. This article will discuss how neural networks work, the advantages and disadvantages of neural networks, and some common applications of the networks.

MPC is a linear algebra method for predicting the result of a sequence of control variable manipulations. Once the results of specific manipulations are predicted, the controller can then proceed with the sequence that produces the desired result. One can compare this controller method to "look ahead" in chess or other board games.

It is widely used because the algorithm does not involve higher order mathematics, but still contains many variables. The amount of variables that are used allows the user to easily adjust the system to the desired settings. The algorithm for the PID uses a feedback loop to correct the difference between some measured value and the setpoint.

A controller is a computer used to automate industrial processes. Process engineers use control logic to tell the controller in a process how to react to all inputs from sensors with an appropriate response to maintain normal functioning of the process. This is based on simple logic principles governed by statements such as IF X, THEN Y, ELSE Z to describe relationships .
