Original Abstract Submitted

Provided is an automated control system for controlling production in one or more chemical plants comprising: a central acquisition device that acquires a certificate indicating raw material properties of an inbound raw material and automatically derives the raw material properties from the certificate; a central management device that compares the raw material properties with corresponding pre-stored raw material specifications and generates a validation result indicating acceptance or rejection of the inbound raw material; and one or more process control systems for controlling respective chemical reactions in the chemical plants that, if the validation result indicates acceptance of the inbound raw material, control the corresponding chemical plant to feed the inbound raw material. A corresponding automated control method and a chemical park are also provided.
