Process Control Experiment: Automated Titration System, Marc Shuflit, Nathan Martin, Noelle Miller, Benjamin Tavares

Scholar Week 2016 - present

A titration experiment has been designed using a chemical reaction tank and implementing all the basic components found in automatic control systems. This system has been constructed using basic fluid flow hardware, control sensors and actuators, along with ladder logic programing for the Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) to automate an acid-base chemical titration. This system will be used in Olivet Nazarene University’s engineering labs to provide hands-on learning of state-of-the-art process technology.
