Résumé

The development of an integrated, real-time computing environment for advanced process control development and education using Hysys, Excel, and Matlab linked with each other is outlined in this paper.  The potential of this integrated, real-time computing environment is demonstrated using a case study of a pseudo random binary sequence for the identification of a methanol-water distillation column simulation.
