However, the high degree of integration of this apparatus causes numerous interactions between kinetics, vapor-liquid equilibrium, and mass transfer. To ensure a reliable operation of the RDWC, suitable control schemes need to be developed and experimentally validated. A decentralized control scheme for the RDWC is presented and for the first time experimentally investigated on an RDWC pilot plant. A comparison of experimental and simulated data is carried out and shows good agreement.en0930-751620205964973Wiley-VCH Verl.-Ges.https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/DistillationProcess controlProcess integrationReactive dividing-wall columnChemieTechnikJournal Article10.15480/882.275610.1002/ceat.20190062010.15480/882.2756Journal Article
