Design and simulation of an automation system for the production and fractionation process of 131I, using advanced control strategies

In this report, the results are obtained in the design and simulation of a control system using advanced strategies in a production cell in the Radioisotopes Production Plant at the IPEN. The results demonstrate that the temperature of the coalition oven is stabilized after 30 minutes, being constituted in an advantage to obtain the maximum yield of the cell production of 131I; also, an integral good controller has been designed that allows to obtain a mathematical model that reproduces with enough accuracy the behavior of the process. With the final simulation it has been demonstrated that the system control of temperature of the cell production of 131I is a controllable system and allows to carry out the respective sequence with other variables of control of the production cell.
