Intelligent Modelling of Continuous Pulp Cooking

Part of the book series: Studies in Fuzziness and Soft Computing ((STUDFUZZ,volume 71))

Abstract

Cooking is the major process in the pulp mill and its proper control is very important to the pulp production. The cooking should be done to the best quality at the minimum cost. Usually, the best quality means the minimisation of variation in the quality variables. Quality variations must simultaneously compensate for the effects of several types of disturbances. The main objective is to guarantee the similar cooking history for all chip particles as they pass through the digester. This leads to decreased variation in pulp quality compared with the conventional control.
