New embedded control system for enzymatic hydrolysis

Abstract

This paper describes implementation of new computer system for measurement and control of laboratory system for recycling chromium from tannery waste. The laboratory is used for verification and further research of unique chromium-recycling technology based on enzymatic hydrolysis developed at our institute. As the original control equipment reached the end of its service life, it was decided to rebuild the technology with modem means of automatic control. This paper briefly introduces the whole system and then focuses on the control structure of the most important part of the technology. The process of implementing new computer control system from choosing the devices to final activation of the system is described, including the problems faced along the way and the means used to solve them.
