The techniques were implemented in a pilot plant with coupled control loops, where all steps used to design the controllers were described allowing to establish a trade-off between algorithm complexity, information needed from the process and achieved performance. Two data-driven control techniques are used: multivariable ultimate point method to design a decentralized PID controller and virtual reference feedback tuning to design a centralized PID controller. A mathematical model of the process is obtained and used to design a model-based generalized predictive controller. Experimental results allow us to evaluate the performance achieved for each method, as well as to infer on their advantages and disadvantages.&lt;/p&gt;
