Definition of process

[edit]

I believe that, before we get ahead of ourselves, it is first and foremost important to provide clear definitions of what 'process' means in terms of process control. That is - 'what is a process?'. The definition of it, with a simple clear example to begin with, followed by more advanced examples. This is where a lot of (or basically all) text books and documents fall over. They never defined 'process'. Looking it up in the dictionary doesn't help, since it doesn't explain it in control systems terms. Any textbook or document that teaches control or process control must define the word 'process'. KorgBoy (talk) 07:09, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Examples for continuous processes

Aren't chemical, fuel & plastics production more akin to batch processes? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.163.10.120 (talk) 05:48, 7 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Chemicals, petroleum refining and plastics are continuous processes. See: Continuous production Phmoreno (talk) 02:09, 1 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This article is a mess

[edit]

I removed some inaccurate statements and have tried to improve this article; however, I am a process engineer and not a instruments and controls engineer. Perhaps someone with the appropriate background can lend some assistance.Phmoreno (talk) 16:31, 3 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Clearer focus of article

[edit]

I have re-written much of the article and made it have a clear focus "Automatic Process control in continuous production processes is a combination of control engineering and chemical engineering disciplines ", so it does not duplicate other control articles, or wander into domestic or non industrial areas.

Is there a difference between min and max and a range?

[edit]

The section "Economic advantages" say: "These specifications can come in two forms: a minimum and maximum for a property of the material or product, or a range within which the property must be."

But isn't that exactly the same thing? Jzandin (talk) 08:47, 21 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
