Sliding controller design for a nonlinear fermentation system.
The design of a sliding controller for a continuous fermentation process is presented. The results obtained by simulation have proved the control scheme to be very robust. Regulation of substrate concentration at its optimal value has been achieved even though process parameters change their nominal values. Chattering effects are decreased by introducing a minor modification of the control variable around the sliding surface.
