Abstract

The kinetics of bioreactions often involve some uncertainties and the dynamics of the process vary during the course of fermentation. For such processes, conventional control schemes may not provide satisfactory control performance and demands extra effort to design advanced control schemes. In this study, a dynamic fuzzy model based predictive controller (DFMBPC) is presented for the control of a biochemical reactor. The DFMBPC incorporates an adaptive fuzzy modeling framework into a model based predictive control scheme to derive analytical controller output. The DFMBPC has the flexibility to opt with various types of fuzzy models whose choice also lead to improve the control performance. The performance of DFMBPC is evaluated by comparing with a fuzzy model based predictive controller (FMBPC) with no model adaptation and a conventional PI controller. The results show that DFMBPC provides better performance for tracking setpoint changes and rejecting unmeasured disturbances in the biochemical reactor.
