Fractional-Order Modeling and Identification for an SCR Denitrification Process
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This paper presents an application of a fractional-order system on modeling an industrial process system with large inertia and time delay. The traditional integer-order model of the process system is extended to a fractional-order one in this work. To identify the parameters of the proposed fractional-order model, an output-error identification algorithm is presented. Based on the experimental step response data of the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) denitrification process in a power plant, this proposed fractional-order model shows a better fitting result compared with the typical integer-order models. An integer-order proportional–integral (PI) controller is designed for the process plant using a simple scheme according to the identified fractional-order and integer-order models, respectively. Validation tests are performed based on the obtained fractional-order and integer-order models, demonstrating the advantages of the proposed fractional-order model with the corresponding system identification approach for industrial processes with large inertia and time delay.
