Chemical engineers with their comprehensive training must be able to solve global problems in which humanity finds itself, through the application of technology, methods, control and monitoring of industrial processes to recognize and define problems, as well as the development of solutions. For this there are automatic process control systems with which continuous monitoring of critical variables and minimization of human error is achieved. This represents an opportunity to reduce the gap between the theory of automatic process control and what exists at the industrial level, that is, that students are not limited only to equations and pilot scale equipment. Therefore, the objective of this work is to develop a computer solution that supports the process of comprehensive training of students around the automatic process control. The development of this automatic process control simulator presents a systematic study on automatic control theories and loop tuning methods recommended in the programming environment Visual Basic for Application (VBA) in Microsoft Excel.
