Advanced Process Control (APC) is an enhancement of the basic process control aimed at delivering value to our customers in terms of throughput, quality, and cost. APCs utilize various technologies to optimize the process in response to business drivers with minimum resources without compromising throughput, quality, and cost targets.
The APC supervisory process management system autonomously optimizes the process area based on cost/value. APC is an automated “expert operator” that works to fully optimize a process.
The expert operator in APC is always fully attentive, never distracted, and achieves optimum conditions for the plant. APC can be implemented to determine the best setpoints so that the process can operate at maximum efficiency.
