NMPC & APC for Chemical, Pharma & Food

From reactor temperature control to batch crystallisation — model-based control that ships.

Challenges

  • Batch-to-batch variability driven by unmeasured disturbances
  • Constraints on temperature, pressure, and composition must never be violated
  • Slow lab measurements mean control acts on stale information
  • Complex nonlinear dynamics (exothermic reactions, phase changes)

How We Help

Nonlinear MPC for Reactors

Control exothermic reactors, distillation columns, and crystallisers with NMPC that respects hard safety constraints.

Soft-Sensor Integration

Estimate product quality (viscosity, particle size, concentration) in real time using virtual sensors.

Economic MPC

Optimise production rate, yield, and energy simultaneously — not just track a setpoint.

Relevant Design Patterns

Let's discuss how model-predictive control can address your specific challenges. A 30-minute call is enough to assess feasibility.
