There are two approaches to process control. The one is engineering process control(EPC) which is one of the techniques very widely used in the process industry and based on control theory which aims at keeping the process on target using manipulating variable. The other is statistical process control(SPC) whose main purpose is to look for assignable causes(variability) in the process. To design an integrated or combined scheme of SPC and EPC is gaining recognition in the process experiences for hybrid industry. This paper aims to investigate recent study concerned on the integration of SPC and EPC. First, we consider the difference between SPC and EPC in simple terms and review various models of EPC for integration including evaluation of previous study. Finally, we suggest some prospective research area concerned on the integration of SPC and EPC.
