Technology

Our Technology addresses the so called “Control Problem” with a disruptive approach. Incumbent solutions based on fixed parameters are surpassed by the unique Adaptive Predictive Control developed by ADEX which brings new levels of flexibility, performance and accuracy on the control of industrial facilities never ever known before.

This technology is the result of:

• Several years of Research in centers such as MIT, University of Alberta or the University of Grenoble.
• Development of innovation projects in collaboration with big corporations all over the World

The Technology has been granted with different patents in USA, EU and India among other regions. Different papers, articles and books have been written explaining the technical differences of our technology.

All those algorithms and expertise have been packed in the form of a Self-Tuning Artificial Intelligence platform.

Instead of trying to develop models that identify the whole process dynamics, by means of self-tuning Artificial Intelligence, ADEX determines at every control instant the time-varying short-term process dynamics (instant dynamics vs entire dynamics), which enables accurate prediction, and therefore accurate control, of the critical process variables at the next control instant. This way, our  time-varying adaptive-predictive model whose parameters are automatically adjusted by an adaptation mechanism at every control instant, the prediction error of these critical variables is minimized and the control system remains stable under changing conditions, guiding critical variables through desired trajectories.

Today, ADEX Technology has been installed on +70 plants and it is commercialized worldwide through ADEX and its partners.
