Abstract
A number of plants of technological interest include transport phenomena in which mass, or energy, or both, flow along one space dimension, with or without reactions taking place, but with neglected dispersion. This type of processes are described by hyperbolic partial differential equations [4] and is receiving an increasing attention in what concerns the application of Predictive Control [6]. Two examples considered are distributed collector solar fields [3, 10] and tubular bioreactors [5]. In both cases the manipulated variable is assumed to be the flow. For lack of space, only the first example is considered hereafter.
