Several researchers have utilized this TE process to evaluate plantwide process control approaches. There are six operating modes in the Tennessee Eastman process. How to operate the mode from one to another is always an important topic. In this paper, we try to use important controlled variables of Tennessee Eastman process improved structure which McAvoy and so on proposed in 1995, and develop a model predictive control structure. We made Tennessee Eastman process mode transition and plant-wide control with the structure. The simulation results show that the proposed model predictive control structure can get satisfactory control performance in mode transition and the change of the most critical disturbance (IDV6) of the Tennessee Eastman process.
