Today, distillation is by far the most common separation technique used in the chemical and petroleum industries. Distillation Control approaches this subject from a process engineering perspective to explain the use of steady-state simulations to develop, to analyze, and to troubleshoot all aspects of column controls, including their practical application and cost benefits. Practicing engineers and other professionals working in process facilities that use distillation to separate materials will find this book a reliable companion.

Cecil L. Smith, PhD, is President of Cecil L. Smith, Inc. a firm specializing in automation technology, founded after he left the facility of Louisiana State University. Dr. Smith has more than thirty-five years of experience in process control, with expertise spanning almost all control technology currently in use in industrial production facilities. Dr. Smith has been listed among InTech magazine's fifty most influential industry innovators.
