Editorial Reviews

"Unfortunately, there are not so many textbooks on control of process engineering apparatus [...] Therefore, this book is a very good contribution to this subject. Numerous control schemes and examples explain the methods presented."
Prof. Dr.-Ing. Robert Haber, Cologne University of Technology

„Es gibt leider nicht so viele Lehrbücher über die Regelung von verfahrenstechnischen Apparaten […] Daher ist dieses Buch ein sehr guter Beitrag zu diesem Thema. Zahlreiche Regelungsschemen und Beispiele erläutern die präsentierten Methoden."
Prof. Dr.-Ing. Robert Haber, Technische Hochschule Köln
