Abstract

Energy supply from renewable sources is one of the most attractive fields of study in recent years. Ensuring the efficient operation of the microbial fuel cell (MFC) due to its capabilities requires the development of appropriate control strategies. This paper presents a combination of fuzzy and adaptive control methods to control single-chamber single-population MFC. For estimating nonlinear terms as well as the parametric uncertainty in the model, fuzzy approximation method has been used and the effects of disturbances as well as fuzzy approximation gains have been covered by adaptive method. Using Liapunov theory, the robust stability of the system under the proposed controller is shown. The simulation results clearly show the ability of the proposed method to achieve MFC control goals.
