Control configurations

Distillation columns have four or more closed loops—increasing with the number of product streams and their specifications—all of which interact with each other to some extent. Because of this interaction, there are many possible ways to pair manipulated and controlled variables through controllers and other mathematical functions with widely differing degrees of effectiveness. Columns also differ from each other, so that no single rule of configuring control loops can be apphed successfully to all. The following rules apply to the most common separations. 

Adequate configuration control of product design and processes issues... 

All the elements in a main group have in common a characteristic valence electron configuration. The electron configuration controls the valence of the element (the number of bonds that it can form) and affects its chemical and physical properties. Five atomic properties are principally responsible for the characteristic properties of each element atomic radius, ionization energy, electron affinity, electronegativity, and polarizability. All five properties are related to trends in the effective nuclear charge experienced by the valence electrons and their distance from the nucleus. 

Final approval will then be made by the Configuration Control Board (CCB). 

Optically pure P-ethanolamines react with dichlorocarbene under phase-transfer catalytic conditions to produce epoxides of high configurational retention [30]. Initial reaction occurs at the tertiary nitrogen centre (Scheme 7.29) with subsequent cleavage of the C-N bond. The reaction is configurationally controlled, as shown by the reaction of the conformationally rigid cyclic systems epoxide formation occurs with the equatorial hydroxyl system (50%), but not with the axial hydroxyl compound.

Configuration control may be defined as an element of configuration management, consisting of the evaluation, coordination, approval or disapproval, and implementation of changes to configuration items after formal establishment of their configuration identification (IEEE 610.12-1990). 

Cascade configuration controlling the desuperheater control valve. 

The amplifier used with the reference signal may be used in either a unity or variable gain configuration, controlled by a two position switch to the front panel. The amplification is variable from a gain of 0.5 to approximately 2.0. The variable amplification is used to balance the sample and reference signals.

How will the COTS software/hardware be controlled (This should cover installation, configuration control, storage, and maintenance.)... 

Static Data information which is not related to individual samples or lots (e.g., test methods, specifications, calculations, field formats). This process should enable the collection, cleansing, verification, loading, and maintenance of the static data (e.g., specification limits, calculations, test regimes, etc.). Static data sets should be maintained in a configuration control system. 

It is important that electronic master copies of documentation are placed under configuration control to prevent accidental changes being made to cnrrent or fnture revisions of a docnment. 

Ensure that the Web site and its development enviromnent remain under configuration control at all times and changes to its content should be made in accordance with a documented change control plan appropriate to the technology in use.
