Have you got a process that is out of control? With decades of process control experience at our disposal, we often find innovative ways to tackle complex process loops which had previously never been stable.  Below is an example of a plant that was experiencing an unstable Aeration process.  After implementing control improvements recommended by NIC, the operations staff was able to achieve stable dissolved oxygen levels, resulting in energy and maintenance cost savings.
