Desenvolvimento de um Sistema Inteligente para Determinação de Set Point no Controle da Área Superficial da Alumina: Aplicação de Lógica Fuzzy em Calcinadores de Leito Fluidizado

Abstract

This study investigates the implementation of a fuzzy system to control the specific surface area of alumina in fluidized bed calciners. The fuzzy methodology was chosen for its ability to handle complex and imprecise problems, leveraging empirical knowledge from experts. The developed system proposes temperature and pressure set points to optimize alumina quality and operational safety. Simulation results demonstrated the system's effectiveness, with adjustments based on real data collected from January to December 2014.
