The velocity distribution and the mean residence time of particles, and the influence of various factors on drying characteristics were studied. A mathematical model of granular material drying in a semi-circular impinging stream dryer was proposed, in which the flow characteristics as well as the heat and mass transfer mechanisms were considered. Reasonable numerical methods were used to solve the equations. Under various conditions, the calculated results agree well with the experimental data. The unsteady-state drying dynamic equation, as well as the variations of drying rate and moisture content versus time were obtained. The results indicate that constant drying rate period does not exist in a semi-circular impinging stream dryer. Appropriate semi-circular stage number and curvature radius, flow-rate ratio, air velocity, and higher inlet air temperature should be used for enhancing the drying process.展开更多
Multivariate statistical process monitoring and control (MSPM&C) methods for chemical process monitoring with statistical projection techniques such as principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least squares ...Multivariate statistical process monitoring and control (MSPM&C) methods for chemical process monitoring with statistical projection techniques such as principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least squares (PLS) are surveyed in this paper. The four-step procedure of performing MSPM&C for chemical process, modeling of processes, detecting abnormal events or faults, identifying the variable(s) responsible for the faults and diagnosing the source cause for the abnormal behavior, is analyzed. Several main research directions of MSPM&C reported in the literature are discussed, such as multi-way principal component analysis (MPCA) for batch process, statistical monitoring and control for nonlinear process, dynamic PCA and dynamic PLS, and on-line quality control by inferential models. Industrial applications of MSPM&C to several typical chemical processes, such as chemical reactor, distillation column, polymerization process, petroleum refinery units, are summarized. Finally, some concluding remarks and future considerations are made.展开更多
