Ore leaching techniques combined with solution treatment procedures offer exceptional conditions to produce high purity metal from very low-grade ore sources. Essential percentage of the world copper production is based on the heap and dump leaching techniques. The use of computer simulation, is now a basic tool for process design and optimisation, as evidenced by its increasing use of practising engineers through commercially available simulation software products. This paper discusses the modelling and simulation of the hydrometallurgical processes. The simulation example of a copper heap leaching process is presented and evaluated.

Predictive control algorithms are promising also in the case of nonlinear systems. Long-range predictive control algorithms are derived here for the nonlinear Hammerstein model. A quadratic cost function is minimized, which considers the quadratic deviation of the reference signal and the output signal predicted in a future horizon and punishes also the squares of the control increments. The predictive incremental form of the Hammerstein model is used to predict the output signal. Suboptimal versions of the control algorithm are given with different assumptions for the control signal during the control horizon. Some properties of these algorithms are shown through simulation examples. Behaviour of long-range predictive control algorithms is compared with the performance of one-step-ahead predictive control algorithms.

High quality galvanized steel strip is a need of today's manufacturers of various products. In particular, in the top quality section steel strips for the automotive, building and consumer goods industries only those steel producers will be successful who are applying state-of-the-art process technologies. For this reason, VOEST-ALPINE Industrieanlagenbau mbH (VAI) and VOEST-ALPINE Stahl Linz developed a new galvannealing control system to optimize this metallurgical process. As the latest improvement of the galvannealing control strategy, a neural network controller has been developed by VAI in Cooperation with the Vienna University of technology Christian Doppler Laboratory for Intelligent control Methods for process Technologies. The paper describes the galvannealing process as far as it is necessary for the understanding of the controller functions, the controller structure and its essential functions. Furthermore, the neural network structure used and its integration into the controller system are explained. A discussion of simulation and practical operating results shows the improvements achieved by using a neural network controller in comparison to the conventional controller.

Predictive control algorithms are promising also in the case of nonlinear systems. Two versions of extended horizon predictive control algorithms are given here for the nonlinear simple Hammerstein model. A quadratic cost function is minimized, which considers the quadratic deviation of the reference signal and the output signal predicted in a future point and also the squares of the control increments. The system model is transformed to a predictive incremental form. Two versions of suboptimal extended horizon control algorithms are given with different assumptions for the control signal during the control horizon. Robustness properties of these algorithms are considered in case of plant-model mismatch through some simulation examples.

A third-order proportional process model with parameter uncertainty is controlled by different simple controllers. First the robustness of four different PID-control designs is investigated. Then internal model control (IMC) is designed in the time domain for the exact process model and for its approximating model with a first-order lag and a delay time. Finally, the PID-control of the nominal model is extended by an IMC-like feedback, which makes the control especially robust.

Predictive control strategies have been proved effective and robust in practice. These algorithms were developed mainly for linear processes. The main idea is to determine the control signal minimising the deviation between a reference signal and the predicted process output in a given prediction horizon. A simplified version is one-step-ahead predictive control, where prediction horizon is restricted to one future point. Extended horizon control proposed by Ydstie (1984) is enlengthened one-step-ahead control which lets more time for the settling process than the dead time. Extended horizon predictive control strategy is derived here for a class of nonlinear systems. Some simulation results show the effect of the tuning parameters for the reference signal tracking performance of the nonlinear system.

Predictive control algorithms determine a series of the control signal minimizing the deviation between the reference and the output signal in a given future horizon. The output of the plant to be controlled is predicted on the basis of a model, which can be linear or nonlinear, parametric or nonparametric. In adaptive control these process parameters are identified and the control signal is calculated taking the identified values into consideration. In the paper simulation results present some properties of adaptive predictive control. Robustness of the control algorithm is illustrated through control of a simple Wiener model . The relationship between the plant order and the prediction horizon is also mentioned. The promising results indicate that further systematic analysis is worthwhile.

The paper presents a recursive parameter estimation and the associated structure estimation method using El ementary S ubSystem (ESS) representation of S1S0 systems. Besides the ability of estimating the structure and tracking time-varying parameters, the elaborated procedure can also be applied to track time-varying structures. The proposed method is illustrated by simulation examples.
