Its first commercialization was in 2004 on Shell B-11 Platform and still in use up until today. The controller in use currently implemented a PID algorithm to control the position of the shockwave within the separator. This shockwave is essential for the separation process. However, a PID control paradigm is quite inefficient due to the non-linear properties of pressure distribution along the shockwave and the behavior of a shockwave that fluctuates generally around 500Hz. Implementation of a Neural Network based controller on the system may yield better results in terms of controllability and stability as shown by some research due to its predictive and adaptive characteristic. ©2009 IEEE. date: 2009 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-77952597122&doi=10.1109%2fSCORED.2009.5442971&partnerID=40&md5=99bb2a1488796d62f27c9dc720a03f9b id_number: 10.1109/SCORED.2009.5442971 full_text_status: none publication: SCOReD2009 - Proceedings of 2009 IEEE Student Conference on Research and Development place_of_pub: Serdang pagerange: 457-460 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781424451876 citation: Mokhtar, K.A.B. and Hanif, N.H.H.B.M.
