Intelligent Control Lab. Control and Operation of a Glass Melting Furnace
One of ICLab students, João Pina, participated in the
PEDIP supported project Novo Vidro whose main goal was to
build a glass melting plant in the North of Portugal. The plant
is endowed with an innovative set of sensors and control systems concepts,
including the automation of operation levels. ICLab participation concerned
the furnace Supervision and Monitoring System.
