Résumé : | In this paper, experimental investigations of an adaptive RST control scheme for the regulation of the ethanol concentration in fed-batch cultures of S. cerevisiae is presented. Our main objective is to prove efficiency and robustness of this controller in experimental applications ranging from laboratory to industrial scales. The controller only requires one on-line measurement signal, making it easily implementable in an industrial environment. Disturbance rejection is ensured thanks to an on-line parameter adaptation procedure, which delivers as a side product an estimate of the growth rate that can be used for process monitoring purposes. The robustification of the controller is achieved in a simple way, using the observer polynomial. © 2009 Elsevier B.V. |
