Analysis of fluidized catalytic cracking process using fuzzy logic system

摘要

A procedure for non-linear modelling of the highly complex and dynamic Fluidized Catalytic Cracking process through the use of fuzzy logic controller is investigated in this paper. Fuzzy logic based system makes use of human knowledge base to define rule set which acts as the backbone of the FLC. The myriad range of application of fuzzy logic makes it an efficient tool to model complex chemical processes such as fluidized catalytic cracking. The main aim of this paper is to analyze the various process parameters involved in the complex catalytic cracking process using fuzzy logic controller(FLC). The results are simulated using Matlab-fuzzy logic toolbox R2013a. The real time process data that has been used in the paper has been obtained from FCCU division of BPCL refinery, Mumbai.
