The Laboratory for Automation and Control (LAM) is located at the Faculty of Chemical Engineering and Technology at the University of Zagreb.
The laboratory comprises a number of unit operations and individual exercises, all connected to a modern system for data acquisition and process control.
The aim is to teach basic and advanced concepts of process measurement, dynamics, optimization and control.
