What is Chemical Plant?
 A chemical plant is an arrangement of processing units (reactors,
heat exchangers, pumps, distillation columns, absorbers,
evaporators, tanks, etc.), integrated with each other in a systematic
and rational manner. The plant's overall objective is to convert
certain raw materials (input feedstock) into desired products using
available sources of energy, in the most economic, way.

A Chemical Plant must

 Why does Control Necessary?
 There are three general classes of needs that a control system
is called on to satisfy:
- Suppress the influence of external disturbances,
- ensure the stability of a chemical process, and
- optimize the performance of a chemical process.

10
Suppressing the influence of external disturbances
 Operational Objectives
1. To keep the effluent temperature T at a desired value
Ts
2. To keep the volume of the liquid in the tank at a
desired value Vs
