Particulate processes are characterized by the co-presence of a contin- uous phase and a dispersed (particulate) phase, and are widely used in industry for the manufacturing of many high-value products. Examples include the crystallization of proteins for pharmaceutical applications, the emulsion polymerization reactors for the production of latex, the aerosol synthesis of titania powder used in the production of white pig- ments, and the thermal spray processing of nanostructured coatings. It is now well understood that the physico-chemical and mechanical properties of materials made with...

This monograph provides insight and fundamental understanding into the feedback control of nonlinear and hybrid process systems. It presents state-of-the-art methods for the synthesis of nonlinear feedback controllers for nonlinear and hybrid systems with uncertainty, constraints and time-delays with numerous applications, especially to chemical processes. It covers both state feedback and output feedback (including state estimator design) controller designs. Control of Nonlinear and Hybrid Process Systems includes numerous comments and remarks providing insight and fundamental...
