Similarities and diierences are observed. Three control structures are evaluated for both systems. A control structure with one internal composition controller and one temperature controller provides eeective control of both systems for both high and moderate conversion designs. A two-temperature control structure is eeective when the system is overdesigned in terms of number of reactive trays, holdup and/or catalyst load. Direct control of product purity for the high-conversion/high-purity design is diicult because of system nonlinearity and interaction. Tray temperature control avoids the nonlinearity problem. ?
