    Abstract: A control system for optimizing a chemical loop system includes one or more sensors for measuring one or more parameters in a chemical loop. The sensors are disposed on or in a conduit positioned in the chemical loop. The sensors generate one or more data signals representative of an amount of solids in the conduit. The control system includes a data acquisition system in communication with the sensors and a controller in communication with the data acquisition system. The data acquisition system receives the data signals and the controller generates the control signals. The controller is in communication with one or more valves positioned in the chemical loop. The valves are configured to regulate a flow of the solids through the chemical loop.

    Abstract: A control system for optimizing a chemical looping (“CL”) plant includes a reduced order mathematical model (“ROM”) that is designed by eliminating mathematical terms that have minimal effect on the outcome. A non-linear optimizer provides various inputs to the ROM and monitors the outputs to determine the optimum inputs that are then provided to the CL plant. An estimator estimates the values of various internal state variables of the CL plant. The system has one structure adapted to control a CL plant that only provides pressure measurements in the CL loops A and B, a second structure adapted to a CL plant that provides pressure measurements and solid levels in both loops A, and B, and a third structure adapted to control a CL plant that provides full information on internal state variables. A final structure provides a neural network NMPC controller to control operation of loops A and B.

    Abstract: Method and system for adjusting a measured reheat outlet steam temperature (“RPV”) to approximate a reheat outlet steam temperature setpoint (“RSP”) in a boiler. An RPV is compared to an RSP. If the RPV is less than the RSP and a position of a fuel nozzle tilt (“TILTPV”) is below a high limit of the fuel nozzle tilt (“TILTHIGH”), the TILTPV is increased while a flow rate of a secondary flue gas recirculation (“SFGRPV”) is kept constant. If the RPV is less than the RSP and the TILTPV is at the TILTHIGH, the SFGRPV is increased. If the RPV is greater than the RSP and the SFGRPV is greater than a low limit of flow rate of the SFGR (“SFGRLOW”), the SFGRPV is decreased, while the TILTPV is kept constant. If the RPV is greater than the RSP and the SFGRPV is at the SFGRLOW, the TILTPV is decreased.
