    Improved batch pan monitoring, control and optimization - a soft sensor approach : SRDC final project JCU018

    Cane sugar is manufactured in process vessels called vacuum pans, which are closely supervised by operating personnel, known as pan boilers. Traditionally, the pan boiler’s job has been made easier through the use of a control system based on electrical conductivity. However, conductivity-based vacuum pan control is far from perfect, since it requires continual attention from the pan boiler to ensure that the vacuum pan is running efficiently.
