Abstract

In this chapter the integrated planning, scheduling and control (iPSC) of process systems under uncertain conditions throughout the three levels of decision making is examined. The planning problem is explored in a rolling horizon fashion coupled with demand forecasts. Proactive and reactive approaches are employed to handle the effect of stochastic variations. Depending on the nature of the uncertain parameters robust optimisation and chance constrained programming are employed. For the closed-loop implementation of the control, multi-setpoint explicit controllers are designed. The proposed framework is tested on the iPSC of a polymerisation process.
