TL;DR: In this paper, a fractional-order robust controller was proposed to control a reverse osmosis desalination plant, which is composed of a decoupler, a diagonal compensator of the less variable dynamics, and fractional order PI controller in each of the two loops.

TL;DR: In this article, a simple fractional-order controller with a PI α structure for controlling the position of the electrodes of an electric arc furnace (EAF) was proposed, which showed that the attained controllers significantly outperformed the robustness achieved with PI and PID controller.

TL;DR: An innovative control system is designed to remove vibrations using the singular perturbation theory combined with the input-state linearization technique, which includes fractional-order controllers that nearly remove unknown sensor offset and sensor ramp disturbances while reducing the high-frequency component of the control signal caused by sensor noise.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a method to design the fractional-order controller for industrial rotary kiln with an experimental identification of the process, which yielded a second order transfer function with no zeros but with a very large time delay, and it was detected that this time delay could change between ±8% of its nominal value.

TL;DR: In this paper, a fractional-order PI controller for controlling the steam pressure in the steam drum of a bagasse fired boiler was proposed, and the dynamics behavior of this process was experimentally identified.
