Modeling of a Binary Distillation Column
Modeling is a kind of scientific art. Modeling is getting better with experience and good
background.
Mathematical modeling is essential for a good process control.

Taylor Series Expansion
Taylor Series Expansion
This expansion into Taylor series will be very close to the
reality if x0 is very close to x.
The approximation is only exact at the point of linearization.
In process control, x0 is generally representing steady-state
point, deviation from x0 is very small, and therefore Taylor
series expansion can be used safely as far as process control
is concerned.
