N2  - At present, one of the main problems which can be found within chemical engineering education is the availability of real industrial plants able to provide an experimentation framework. The importance of this kind of plants lies in allowing students to apply the learned theoretical concepts to solve real problems. In this paper, a remote tool for educational purposes is presented. More specifically, the implementation of a four‐tank plant, its internal control design and the implementation of an EasyJava tool for executing JavaScript code in both simulation and real experimental tests have been widely described. As a result, a tool that allows to perform experimental tests over the plant in both real and simulation modes has been obtained. In this tool, the limits of use are imposed by the plant and not by the own tool.
