Pilot Plant Centenary Celebration (TF) | |||
| #39 - Instrumentation and Control - Sponsored by Group 12b, Pilot Plants (TF001) | |||
| Instrumentation and control are critical elements of a pilot program which may impact implementation speed, staffing levels, data accuracy and retrieval, unit operational stability, as well as health, safety, and environment. In celebration of 100 years of AIChE and recognition of the importance of instrumentation and control in process development, this session is devoted to best practices, case studies, and historical evolution of instrumentation and control in pilot plants. | |||
