An adaptive step iterative learning control (ASILC) strategy was developed for model predictive control (MPC) system economic performance design. The strategy treats the functional relationship between the variable variances and the controller parameters as a combination of discrete linear intervals and uses process information in the last iteration to adaptively update the iteration step. This optimizes the economic performance step by step. The method is used to design an ethylene cracking furnace control system. Simulations show that ASILC converges to the optimal operating point faster than iterative learning control (ILC) and obtains the controller parameter λ for the optimal economic performance. After seven optimizations and iterations, the economic performance target was improved 28.92%.
