Design and Implementation of an Intelligent PI Controller for a Real Time Non Linear pH Neutralization Process
Journal Title: JOURNAL OF ADVANCES IN CHEMISTRY - Year 2016, Vol 12, Issue 22
Abstract
In many chemical processes, pH is one of the most important parameter and control of the pH is highly non linear due to the complex nature of processes. PID controllers are widely used in process industries to control linear, non-linear and stable, unstable systems. Selection of the suitable controller tuning procedure is important to improve the performance of the PID controller and hence the process variable can be controlled in better manner. In this work, Firefly Algorithm (FA) based intelligent PI controller is attempted for a Non Linear pH control process in real time. The effectiveness of the FA controller is studied in the selected operating regions and the results are validated with Relay Feedback (RFB) method and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) method based controllers in the simulation environment. The simulation results indicated that the steady state performance and error performance indices of the FA controller are better than the RFB and PSO controller in the selected operating regions. The FA controller is also implemented in the real time laboratory pH control system, the results confirm that the servo response and regulatory response of the proposed intelligent controller provides better performance with the FA based PI Controllers.
