Abstract
CFPRA has identified several areas within the food industry where the use of modern micro-computer technology is likely to improve product quality and process efficiency. The use of real-time computation and computer logic enables mathematical modelling techniques to be used for process control, thus parameters may now be controlled although they may not be measured directly. This paper deals with the application of a micro-computer based control system to the problem of retort control via FO value and describes the capabilities of the system, plant interfacing, instrumentation and the implications of ‘derived-value control’.Keywords
