DEVELOPMENT OF AN OPTIMAL CONTROL SYSTEM FOR A COMPLEX TECHNOLICAL PROCESS BASED ON METAHEURISTIC ALGORITHMS OF SWARM INTELLIGENCE AND INDUSTRIAL EQUIPMENT OF THE HONEYWELL COMPANY

The article discusses the issue of optimal control of a complex MIMO object based on modern methods of swarm intelligence. A distillation column for the gas purification process was chosen as a typical control object, which was implemented by intelligent control. It is proposed to use metaheuristic algorithms based on the behavior of a dragonfly and optimization of a grey wolf to solve the problem of optimal synthesis of industrial controllers. The article introduces the prospects for the implementation of the developed methods for an automatic process control system in the Experion PKS environment based on Honeywell equipment. The intelligent PI control strategy has been implemented for the C300 PLC, the control station and the operator screen has been configured for the technological process.
