A technique of controlling a steam generating boiler system includes using a rate of change of disturbance variables to control operation of a portion of the boiler system, and in particular, to control a temperature of output steam to a turbine. The technique uses a primary dynamic matrix control (DMC) block to control a field device that, at least in part, affects the output steam temperature. The primary DMC block uses the rate of change of a disturbance variable, a current output steam temperature, and an output steam temperature setpoint as inputs to generate a control signal. A derivative DMC block may be included to provide a boost signal based on the rate of change of the disturbance variable and/or other desired weighting. The boost signal is combined the control output of the primary DMC block to more quickly control the output steam temperature towards its desired level.
